Big Strong Girl - Deb Talan

It’s not now or never

It’s not black, and it’s not white

Anything worth anything takes more than a few days

And a long, long night

Don’t push so hard against the world, no, no You can’t do it all alone, and if you could

Would you really want to?

Even though you’re a big strong girl

Come on, come on, lay it down

The best made plans are your open hands

Rest your head

You’ve got two pillows to choose from

In a queen-sized bed

Hold out for the moon

But don’t expect connection any time soon

Feel the light caress your fingertips

You have just begun, the word has only left your lips

Maybe in time, you will find

Your arms are wrapped around the sun

You’re wrapped around the sun
