You’re a Big Girl Now Lyrics by Chrissie Hynde

Standing in the Doorway: Chrissie Hynde Sings Bob Dylan

2020

[Verse 1]
Our conversation was short and sweet
It nearly swept me off-a my feet
And I'm back in the rain, oh-oh
And you're on dry land, ooh
You made it there somehow
You're a big girl now
[Verse 2]
Bird on the horizon, sitting on a fence
Singing song for me at his own expense
And I'm just like that bird, oh-oh
Singing just for you, ooh
And I hope that you can hear
Hear me singing through these tears
[Verse 3]
Time is a jet plane, it moves so fast
Oh, but what a shame that all we've shared can't last
I can change, I swear, oh-oh
And see what you can do, ooh
I can make it through
You can make it too
[Verse 4]
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase
You've known it all the time, I'm learning it these days
Oh, I know where I can find you, oh-oh
In somebody's room, ooh
It's a price I have to pay
You're a big girl all the way
[Verse 5]
A change in the weather is known to be extreme
What's the sense of changing horses in midstream?
I'm going out of my mind, oh-oh
With a pain that stops and starts, ooh
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Ever since we've been apart
You're a big girl now
You're a big girl
