She lives in the shadow of a lonely girl
Voice so quiet you don't hear a word
Always talking but she can't be heard
You can see there if you catch her eye
I know she's brave but it's trapped inside
Scared to talk but she don't know why
Wish I knew back then
What I know now
Wish I could some how
Go back in time
And maybe listen to my own advice
I'd tell her to speak up
Tell her to shout loud
Talk a bit louder
Be a bit prouder
Tell her she's beautiful
Wonderful
Everything she doesn't see
You gotta speak up
You gotta shout loud
And know that right here right now
You can be beautiful
Wonderful
Anything you wanna be
Little me
Yeah, you got a lotta time to act your age
You can't write a book from a single page
Hands on the clock only turn one way
Run too fast and you'll risk it all
Can't be afraid to take a fall
Felt so big but you look so small
Wish I knew back then
What I know now
Wish I could somehow
Go back in time
And maybe listen to my own advice
I'd tell her to speak up
Tell her to shout loud
Talk a bit louder
Be a bit prouder
Tell her she's beautiful
Wonderful
Everything she doesn't see
You gotta speak up
You gotta shout loud
And know that right here right now
You can be beautiful
Wonderful
Anything you wanna be
Little me
Little me
Tell you one thing I would say to her
I'd tell her to speak up
Tell her to shout loud
Talk a bit louder
Be a bit prouder
Tell her she's beautiful
Wonderful
Everything she doesn't see
You gotta speak up
You gotta shout loud
And know that right here right now
You can be beautiful
Wonderful
Anything you wanna be
I'd tell her to speak up
Tell her to shout loud
Talk a bit louder
Be a bit prouder
Tell her she's beautiful
Wonderful
Everything she doesn't see
You gotta speak up
You gotta shout loud
And know that right here right now
You can be beautiful
Wonderful
Anything you wanna be
Little me
