She's loud and she's proud
She talks in her sleep
She keeps the neighbours up every night of the week
She tells a lot of jokes that
She laughs at alone
While she's sipping on a bottle
She's hard and she's soft all at the same time
Hard on my heart and soft on my eyes
She's perfect in every way
Even when she isn't
She is just the same
Yeah she's three
Going on seventeen
She's harmless but she knows how to break me
I find it hard to open up to anyone
I told her every secret before she could run
Now I'm here, scared and afraid
Of losing her
That laugh makes you cry and someday I know
Life will come calling and she'll have to go
I'll raise her my best
Then she'll do the rest
Even though it'll rip the heart from my chest
Now she's three
Going on seventeen
She's harmless but she knows how to break me
I know that there'll come a day
When she'll pack up her things
Load up the car and then she'll drive away
Leave me here scared and afraid
Of losing her
Well I can't let her go but won't let it show
She'll leave here thinking I am still whole
But I'll be there
Broken and never quite the same
From losing her
