lyrics

She left quickly you got left behind
now your thinking, Why am I here?
She felt lonely lost inside her mind
now she wants to fly away from here
 
Every day she wakes up to clothe herself in pride
just to hide the hurt inside
a solo battle she must fight
now she doesn't bother telling friends when she feels down
cos they don't understand her frown
they just prefer when she's the clown
 
And they cant see be - hind her smile hides her tears
and they don't know be- hind her eyes hides her fears
cos she knows how to hide it all in her hat
and every time you smile at her
she'll smile back

She grew quickly, broke out of her shell
so desperate to find the hidden key
she walked boldly alone in the world
trusting in her guide to set her free
 
Everyday she looks up to see whats he'll provide
and see her path slowly unwind
she takes a step although she's blind
she's not use to holding on but she can't let go
her tears have nourished time to grow
she's looking up and letting go.
 
And they cant see be - hind her smile hides her tears
and they don't know be- hind her eyes hides her fears
cos she knows how to hide it all in her hat
and every time you smile at her
she'll smile back

Every time you look in her eyes
you'll see the pain and suffering
from where she used to be used to be
now there is no surprise
she's looking up and breaking free
 
Now they can see me
after all of these years
and they should know they've helped me through all the tears
now I know how to
deal with all of the rough
now every time you look at me
you'll see love.
