There's a girl, who's given up
On everyone she knows
And everyone one who knows her

She feels betrayed in every way
The people who love her, they always leave her


She wants to go on believing
That she's the queen, queen, queen of the masquerade
She can't shake the feeling

That's she's stuck, stuck, stuck in a fantasy

[Chorus]

Little miss independent, she goes where she wants to go
Nobody can tell her no
Little miss independent, everybody wants her

But nobody needs her
She's so hard to break, a standing ovate
I tell her she still needs love, love, love

She's getting nowhere, she's getting nowhere
She's getting nowhere, she's getting nowhere, fast


There's a girl, who wants to know
All the things in life, that no one ever told her
She's taking chances, on fake romance

She knows that it's danger
But that doesn't stop her


She wants to go on believing
That she's in love, love, love with the way she lives
She can't shake the feeling

That if she stops, stops, stops
She'll wake from the dream she's in


[Chorus]
Little miss independent, she goes where she wants to go
Nobody can tell her no

Little miss independent, everybody wants her
But nobody needs her
She's so hard to break, a standing ovate

I tell her she still needs love, love, love
She's getting nowhere, she's getting nowhere
She's getting nowhere, she's getting nowhere, fast


If she was just brave enough
To open up her heart, she might find

Love, love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love


[Chorus]
Little miss independent, she goes where she wants to go
Nobody can tell her no

Little miss independent, everybody wants her
But nobody needs her
She's so hard to break, a standing ovate

I tell her she still needs love, love, love.
