Growing up Fast

Her mother died while she was in middle school,

Her mother's wishes burned into her mind,

To graduate high school and to live a life that she never had.

She never met her father, but she knew she was being watched over by him.

Memories of her mother burned into her mind,

She was sunshine,

But she was growing up too fast,

She did her best in her studies, other girls hated her.

But her best friends loved her.

But she was growing up too fast.

At first he loved her as if she was a mother,

But he realized that he loved her in a different way.

Because she was growing up too fast,

She heard about the zodiac curse,

But her compassion didn't change at all,

The kindness her mother showed her,

Was what she spread around,

But was she growing up too fast?

She dreamed of being born in year of the cat,

Until she suddenly saw the cat's true form,

But her kindness never swayed,

Her name is Tohru Honda,

And she wasn't growing up too fast.
