I see the girl
Behind that smile
I see the girl who just woke up
But feels like she's walked miles
And I see your scars
The ones who make you who you are
I see how big you dream
And how your eyes are on the stars
And promise you'll hear me
When I tell you what I see
I see a girl who needs to know
That the people around her
Don't see what she thinks she sees in her mirror
I see a girl who needs to know
That she lights up a room
Oh I wish that she didn't believe her mirror
Oh I wish she could see herself clearer
The way I do
The way I do
The way I do
And I see the work
You're putting in
To be a better you
Than you've been
And you should know
How much it's true
That when I grow up
I wanna be just like you
And promise you'll hear me
(Hear me)
When I tell you what I see
I see a girl who needs to know
That she's beautiful and loved
Even when she feels she's not enough
(Enough enough)
I see a girl who needs to know
That she's changing lives
Just by being who she is inside
And that there is no reason to hide
(Just can't hide)
The way she shines
Oh I hope you know I'd take the seven years
Of bad luck to break the mirror that brought your tears
