Between the Lines

Hey, Honey

Hey, honey, do you know your worth?
You needn't prove it here on earth.
With all your dreams, your hopeful eyes,
There's so much more than you realise.

Don't hide your smile, don't turn away,
Don't let their words take yours away.
You have a heart so full of love,
And you, my girl, are quite enough.

Don't measure who you are by them,
Or wish to be like someone else.
The world has many ways to shine,
But none of them can take what's mine.

Be kind to her, that girl you see,
The one who tries so hard to be.
She has a heart that gives so much,
Don't let the world change it too much.

And if one day you lose your way,
Forget the joy you knew today,
Remember, love, what I can see,
You're everything you need to be.

And if you cannot be your friend,
I'll hold your hand until you can.
I'll see the good you cannot see,
And love the girl you used to be.

So keep your dreams, your happy heart,
Don't let their voices pull apart
The little girl who dared to be
So full of love, so wild, so free.

And when you doubt what you can do,
Remember, I believe in you.
I love you, girl, and now I see -
The girl I loved was always me.
