Permission

I will not hide from you
I will not ask for your permission again
I will not beg from you
And if you're gone
It?s all right

Woke up dancing still from yesterday
Trying to dream the world away
You wear the dress he likes
And you know you never liked it anyway

He says he likes to see you smiling
He says it makes you beautiful
But tonight there is no reason
To him you're just a little girl

I will not hide from you
I will not ask for your permission again
I will not beg from you
And if you're gone
It's all right

Woke up lying still from yesterday
And you can't read his eyes
There's no meaning to it anymore
Just a set of rules and practices you despise

There's a time to use the telephone
But only on certain days
You put it down tonight
Find your way out through the haze
