[Verse 1]
She lives in the shadow of a lonely girl
Always so quiet you don't hear a word
Always talking but she can't be heard
You can see in her if you catch her eye
I know she's brave but it's trapped inside
Scared to talk but she don't know why
[Pre-Chorus]
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 out
Talk a bit louder, be a bit prouder
Tell her she's beautiful, wonderful
Everything she doesn't see
[Chorus]
You got to speak up, you got to shout out
And you know that right here, right now
You can be beautiful, wonderful
Anything you want to be
Little Me
[Verse 2]
Yeah you got a lot of time to act your age
You can't write a book from a single page
Hands on the clock only turn one way
(Yeah)
Run too fast and you risk it all
Can't be afraid to take a fall
Felt so big but you look so small
[Pre-Chorus]
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 out
Talk a bit louder
Be a bit prouder
Tell her she's beautiful, wonderful everything
She doesn't see
[Chorus]
You got to speak up you gotta shout out
And know that right her right now
You can be beautiful, wonderful anything you want to be
Little Me
