When you look at me,
What do you see?
Do you see a girl full of life,
A girl full of energy and smiles?
Or do you see a girl that never laughs,
A girl that never eats?

I believe that is what you see,
What all of you see.

When I look at me,
What do I see?
Do I see a girl full of memories,
A girl full of jokes and innuendos?
Or do I see a girl that never listens,
a girl that could always be thinner?

I believe that I what you see,
What all of you want me to see.

you will never make it big if you dream small. youll never learn if your living in the past and youll never understand if you were to fast forward, just press play and live!
