While I've never been a big fan of the princess myth for little girls, it seems that the writers of Frozen have had the great good sense to create a song that takes Princess to a whole new level: sassy and independent and free. I'm heartened that girls have a role model for bravery and courage and being who they are--never mind what anybody else says. Here are the lyrics (with a few lines omitted), written by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez.
The snow glows white on the mountain tonight,
not a footprint to be seen.
A kingdom of isolation and it looks like I'm the queen.
not a footprint to be seen.
A kingdom of isolation and it looks like I'm the queen.
The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside.
Couldn't keep it in, Heaven knows I tried.
Don't let them in, don't let them see.
Be the good girl you always have to be.
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know.
Well, now they know!
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know.
Well, now they know!
Let it go, let it go!
Can't hold it back any more.
Can't hold it back any more.
Let it go, let it go!
Turn away and slam the door.
I don't care what they're going to say....
It's funny how some distance,
makes everything seem small.
And the fears that once controlled me, can't get to me at all
It's time to see what I can do,
to test the limits and break through.
No right, no wrong, no rules for me.
I'm free!...
makes everything seem small.
And the fears that once controlled me, can't get to me at all
It's time to see what I can do,
to test the limits and break through.
No right, no wrong, no rules for me.
I'm free!...
I'm never going back; the past is in the past!
Let it go, let it go.
And I'll rise like the break of dawn.
Let it go, let it go
That perfect girl is gone.
