When I heard they were coming, I took my bike and hid it well, safe from burning
I went back to get my things, under the bed is where they'd been, but fire doesn't spare a thing
You want it all, take me down, I won't give in
Cause I refuse to be the little girl with shattered dreams
Connecting calls for pocket money, and he walked in from out of town, and he's what my soul found
But it wasn't long before the wind changed, and it took my parents as it blew, and my husband too
You want it all, take me down, I won't give in
Cause I refuse to be, all alone and incomplete
So it was time to face the city, three small children at my feet, alone in the front seat
Ran a shop to earn a living, I met a man who liked to drink, and his punch made me shrink
You want it all, take me down, I won't give in
Cause I refuse to be, falling down around his feet
Found the bottle, found the bible
Found a friend who poured the wine
But God took his sweet time
I looked after other people, for most of my life
But in the end it was all right, in the end it was all right
I went back to get my things, under the bed is where they'd been, but fire doesn't spare a thing
You want it all, take me down, I won't give in
Cause I refuse to be the little girl with shattered dreams
