"I Refuse" by Hue and Cry

I've loved this song for years but, in listening to it now, I'm not sure what it is trying to say.  "You'll always be just a little girl" and "your destiny"...?  I really need to write out the lyrics and analyzed them.  Don't have time right now... :(

I'm wondering if it is saying "I refuse" to fill the traditional gender roles?

The words are slightly different in the various videos.  I feel even more this is about gender roles...
