Javier Colon Hey Little Sister Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
Hey there, excuse me miss
Sorry that I stopped you on the street like this
But you look like someone that I once knew
Don't you recognize me?
I used to live down at the end of your street
Tell me, how are things girl?
What's been up with you?

Pretty lies can't disguise
the pain I see in your eyes
You can't fool this whole world
No matter how hard you try
I can't buy what you're selling me
And there's more to the story you ain't telling me

[Chorus]

Hey little sister
Its been a long time and I've missed ya
Tell me what you're doing now out here all alone
Hey babygirl now
Tell me what's wrong with your world now
Did you take a wrong turn?
Can you find your way back home?

[Verse 2:]
We used to play hopscotch and double dutch
You were kinda shy, didn't say too much
Tell me, is the little girl still inside of you? You had big dreams and your big brown eyes
Tried to be the shiniest star in the sky
But fairytales don't always come true

Pretty lies can't disguise
the pain I see in your eyes
You can't fool this whole world
No matter how hard you try
I can't buy what you're selling me
And there's more to the story you ain't telling me

[Chorus]

You tell me you're okay
At least that's what you say
I see the pain; its clearly written on your face
Tried to be a star
Didn't get too far
Cause someone took your dreams
and tore it all apart

Hear your momma say
To hide the pain
You think its all a game
Now you're all alone
Can't find your way back home

[Last of chorus:]
I can't buy what you're selling me...
And there's more to the story you ain't telling me...

[Chorus]
