[Verse 1]
I used to think I had the answers to everything
But now I know
That life doesn't always go my way, yeah
Feels like I'm caught in the middle
That's when I realized
[Chorus]
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
[Verse 2]
There is no need to protect me
It's time that I learn to face up to this on my own
I've seen so much more than you know now
So don't tell me to shut my eyes
[Chorus]
I'm not a girl (Not a girl, not yet a woman)
Not yet a woman
(I'm just trying to find the woman in me)
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
[Bridge]
But if you look at me closely
You will see it in my eyes
This girl will always find her way
[Chorus]
(I'm not a girl) I'm not a girl, don't tell me what to believe
(Not yet a woman) I'm just trying to find the woman in me, yeah
(All I need is time) All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl (Not a girl, not yet a woman)
Not yet a woman
(I'm just trying to find the woman in me) Not now
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
I used to think I had the answers to everything
But now I know
That life doesn't always go my way, yeah
Feels like I'm caught in the middle
That's when I realized
[Chorus]
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
[Verse 2]
There is no need to protect me
It's time that I learn to face up to this on my own
I've seen so much more than you know now
So don't tell me to shut my eyes
[Chorus]
I'm not a girl (Not a girl, not yet a woman)
Not yet a woman
(I'm just trying to find the woman in me)
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
[Bridge]
But if you look at me closely
You will see it in my eyes
This girl will always find her way
[Chorus]
(I'm not a girl) I'm not a girl, don't tell me what to believe

While I'm in between
I'm not a girl (Not a girl, not yet a woman)
Not yet a woman
(I'm just trying to find the woman in me) Not now
All I need is time, a moment that is mine
While I'm in between
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
