C
Steadfast forecast this was always meant to be
                 Am7
Sent down by the angels
F
Heartbreak can't fade all the plans that were made
By a baby in a manger
C
Bright light so bright it was shining like
a north star
             Am7
Answer to a prayer
F
How could I have known, that you would come along

Chorus:
C                    Em
When I was a little girl
   Am                                F
I wondered who I'd give all my love to
         C                  Em
I asked Santa who he'd recommend
      Am                         F
It's hard to believe I was so innocent

As a little girl looking at the world
Didn’t know that love could break me
I was lying in my tears on the ground
Couldn’t see where God would take me
Here I am now looking at you
Got me thinking that love could save me
How could I have known, that you would come along?

Chorus

When I was a little girl
I had love at the top of my wish list
All my dreams were so unlimited
It’s hard to believe I was so innocent

Dm          Am      G         F
Why do you feel so much like home to me (Home to me)
Dm          Am      G         F
Why do you feel so much like home to me

Chorus

When I was a little girl
I had love at the top of my wish list
All my dreams were so unlimited
It’s hard to believe I was so innocent

Why do you feel so much like home to me?
