Gary Puckett Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Playing in a world of her own
This girl was a child
Existing in a playground of stone
Then one night her world was changed
Her life and dreams were rearranged
And she would never be the same again
She's learned how to give
This girl is a woman now
She's found out what it's all about
And she's learning, learning to live
This girl tasted love
As tender as the gentle dawn
She cried a single tear
A teardrop that was sweet and warm
Our hearts told us we were right
And on that sweet and velvet night
A child had died
A woman had been born
This girl is a woman now
She's learned how to give
This girl is a woman now
She's found out what it's all about
And she's learning, learning to live
This girl is a woman now
She's learned how to give
This girl is a woman now
She's found out what it's all about
And she's learning, learning, learning to live
This girl is a woman now
She's learned how to give
This girl is a woman now

This girl walked in dreams
The girl used to daydream and live in her own world
Playing in a world of her own
She was living in her own imagination
This girl was a child
The girl was still a kid
Existing in a playground of stone
She was living in an environment that didn't provide comfort or emotional support
Then one night her world was changed
Something happened that completely altered her life
Her life and dreams were rearranged
Her experiences had a significant impact on her hopes and aspirations
And she would never be the same again
Her life had transformed for good and could never revert to what it was before
This girl is a woman now
The girl has grown up and matured
She's learned how to give
She has learned how to be selfless and put other people's needs before hers
She's found out what it's all about

This girl tasted love
The girl experienced the emotion of love for the first time
As tender as the gentle dawn
The love was sweet, gentle, and delicate
She cried a single tear
She felt emotional and expressed it through tears
A teardrop that was sweet and warm
Her tears indicated happiness and warmth
Our hearts told us we were right
Our instincts signaled that our decisions were correct
And on that sweet and velvet night
That night was beautiful, perfect, and full of love
A child had died
The girl's childhood and innocence had ended
A woman had been born
The girl had grown up and become a woman
