Lyrics

Princess

My little angel
How soon you lose hope
Come here for hours
Never go

My purple princess
How much you know
I'm always pleased that
You don't say no

I do not mind that
You are a girl
I do not mind that
Little girl

You see it's me who
Loves you the most
Please let me show you
Little girl
