Tired of hurt, only 10 All she wants is to fit inOnly worse, older she gets, just 14 And every time she tried to open upThey tore it down Didn't think she'd ever be enough somedayI hope when she gets older She holds on to her dreamsCause the pain don't last forever, oh I know If she could only see what I can see right nowShe would be so proud She would be so proudHeavy heart, tears stained sheets Chased a dream, only 16Left her out, called her names Never changed, butEvery time she reached up for the stars They pulled her downMade her doubt she'd ever get so far Just waitI hope when she gets older She holds on to her dreamsCause the pain don't last forever, oh I know If she could only see what I can see right nowShe would be so proud She would be so proudShe would be so proudOh, now that I am olderAnd living out my dreams Oh, the pain was worth it in the end somehowIf she could only see what I can see right nowShe would be so proud She would be so proudShe would be so proud
