[Verse 1]
You were a lost girl hidden from the world
Told to never ask for more than you needed
You never got what you needed
Just someone to hold you in their arms
Tell you it's alright so maybe you'd believe it
But you never believed it

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you're a permanent wanderer
And, though you're grown, you're still that little girl
Still that little girl

[Chorus]
Christina, you've never been understood
Christina, always done the best you could
To bury those feelings deep down inside
Christina, I know that things are gett'n' tough
Christina, you were never loved enough
You wear that smile on your face but I know it's a lie
Christina, Christina
Christina, Christina
It's okay to cry

[Verse 2]
So many nights where you wished on the stars
Had an open mind and a hopeful heart
You had a hopeful heart
Had so many things that you wanted to do
And so many dreams that never came true
How come they never came true?
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you're a permanent wanderer
And, though you're grown, you're still that little girl
Still that little girl

[Chorus]
Christina, you've never been understood
Christina, always done the best you could
To bury those feelings deep down inside
Christina, I know that things are gett'n' tough
Christina, you were never loved enough
You wear that smile on your face but I know it's a lie
Christina, Christina
Christina, Christina
Christina, Christina
Christina, Christina
It's okay to cry

[Bridge]
Don't you dare give up on yourself
You've still got time, yeah, you've still got time
Don't you dare give up on yourself
You're gonna be just fine, yeah, you'll be just fine

[Chorus]
Christina, you've never been understood
Christina, always done the best you could
To bury those feelings deep down inside
Christina, I know that things are gett'n' tough
Christina, you were never loved enough
You wear that smile on your face but I know it's a lie
Christina, Christina
Christina, Christina
Oh, Christina, Christina
Christina, Christina
It's okay to cry
