i know this girl - brett ryback lyrics

Loading...

[intro: kathy, spoken]
my first thought was peregrine
try to find her, make sure she’s okay
i saw donald, inside on the phone, and he pointed out back, where the guests had all gathered
and that’s when i went and looked down at the bear again

and there were some kids, tryin’ to scare it away

i could recognise eric and shane, who was bangin’ on pans
and john francis was locked in this dance with the dog as it barked at the bear
but who was it there with this blanket mid*air and i’m starin’ and starin’ and
oh my god
it was peregrine

[verse 1, sung]
the way she took charge
like she knew what to do
it’s so strange when you witness an instant your daughter becomes someone new

[pre*chorus]
who was this girl
who is this girl?

[verse 2]
she was standing her ground
she was fearless and free
and she almost resembled a kind of a woman that i’ve tried to be
[pre*chorus]
i knew this girl
i know this girl

[chorus]
she’s the baby i clung to
many nights spent confused and afraid
she’s the child whose eyes gave me strength to make choices i knew must be made

she’s the girl for whom i tried to live like a woman she could aspire to be
and look at her now
she’s inspiring me

[interlude, spoken]
the bear sharply veered for them
and i suddenly felt my heart freeze
they were maybe 10 feet from the beast, and i shouted to donald
“you have to go help them!”
but none of us could
so we stood there and feared for them
as they side*stepped their way towards the trees

i saw peregrine gesture to eric and tell him to bring her something with the fryer, i think?
oh, with all of the noise it was hard to distinguish the thing which her finger was pointing at
till eric emerged with the fire extinguisher
he sprayed it at the bear, who roared, and then reared
and then, when the air cleared, the bear disappeared!

and we threw up our hands and we cheered for them

[chorus, sung]
this is the kid that i prayed each night
would grow up courageous and smart
knowing when she should follow the rules and when she should follow her heart

the girl that she is, is the person i always expected my daughter to be
i guess i forgot
that’s what i taught her to be

[verse 3]
she knows right from wrong
she’s aware of the rules
but now i can see that we’re built differently
still, i gave her the tools

[outro]
and look who she is
how far she can go
she’s a girl
i’m so lucky
to know
