Big Girls Don't Cry
Jordan McCoy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your hometown
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
to be with myself in center, clarity
Peace, Serenity
I hope you know, I hope you know
It's personal, myself and I
We got some straightening out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their
blanket
But I've gotta move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry,
Don't cry,
Don't cry
The path that I'm walking, I must go alone
I must take the baby steps till I'm full grown,full
grown
Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending do they
And I for seek the dark ahead if I stay
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We got some straightening out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their
blanket
(Big Girls Don't Cry lyrics on
But I've gotta move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Like a little school mate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and unicorns
I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine
Valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
'cause I wanna hold yours too
We'll be playmates and best friends and share our secret
words
But it's time for me to go home
It's getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself in center, clarity
Peace, Serenity
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We got some straightening out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their
blanket
But I've gotta get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry,
Don't cry,
Don't cry
La Da Da Da Da Da
The lyrics of Jordan McCoy's song "Big Girls Don't Cry" depict a woman who is reflecting on the end of a relationship and the need to move on. The first verse speaks of the lingering scent of the partner's skin and their departure, with the singer recognizing that she needs some "shelter" and time to focus on herself, seeking "clarity" and "serenity." She emphasizes that although she will miss her partner like a child misses their blanket, it is time for her to "be a big girl" and move forward.
The second verse further emphasizes the necessity for the singer to take the difficult path of going it alone and growing up, as fairy tales do not always have happy endings. She then speaks of a fantasy in which she and her partner remain close, playing like schoolmates and sharing secrets. However, even in this playful vision, she recognizes that it is time to go home and focus on herself, with the phrase "It's getting late, dark outside," suggesting a sense of urgency.
Throughout the lyrics, the singer asserts that the breakup has nothing to do with her partner, but rather is something she needs to work through for her own personal growth. The phrase "big girls don't cry" serves as a kind of mantra throughout the song, although it is contradicted by the singer's declaration that she will indeed miss her partner.
Overall, "Big Girls Don't Cry" is a song that speaks to the need to prioritize oneself and focus on personal growth, even in the midst of heartbreak.
