There was a little girl
Whose daddy called her queen
And life was filled with joy
Or that was how it seemed
Her happiness she lost
A broken tight-knit bond
Abandoning her trust
And now daddy's not around

Oh, girl, you're a queen
Strong as anything
And when you think love's gone
You still carry on

When she turns sweet sixteen
Her boyfriend called her his queen
A stimulating kiss, that felt like in a dream
Then after another dream
And after another caress
Her body tells the tale
Of her unconsciousness

Oh, girl, you're a queen
Strong as anything
And when you think love's gone
You still carry on (keep on comin')
Oh, girl, you're the queen
If you just believe
And when you think love's gone
You still carry on (you still carry on)

She became a happy wife
Whose husband called her queen
And she believed her life
Was perfect as can be
And when a surprise divorce came down
She rebounded and achieved
The mirror now reveals
What she can finally see

Woman, you're a queen
Strong as anything
And when you think love's gone
You still carry on
Oh, queen (woman, you're a queen)
If you (if you just believe)
(And when you think love's gone)
You still carry on even after love's gone

You're a queen
Yes, you know that you are
When love's gone
And you still carry on

Woman, you're a queen
If you just believe
And when you think love's gone
You still carry on

Woman, you're a queen
