Dear little freckle-faced girl in the picture frame
Trying to fit in just makes you feel out of place
You're scared and insecure, anything but sure
Of who you are
I know you don't know me but I used to wear those shoes
There's a few things that I want to say to you
Life sure goes fast, this too shall pass
I promise you
Go and chase your dreams, don't you dare believe
All the doubters that tell you that it can't be done
'Cause you've got a light that will outshine the sun
You'll fall down sometimes, but you were born to fly
And someday, you'll see what I see
Looking back at me
You'll get your heart broken but it's gonna beat again
Walk through a storm, but you'll come out stronger than
You were before the rain, there's purpose in the pain
I promise you
Go and chase your dreams, don't you dare believe
All the doubters that tell you that it can't be done
'Cause you've got a light that will outshine the sun
You'll fall down sometimes, but you were born to fly
And someday, you'll see what I see
Looking back at me
'Round and 'round it goes
This crazy life unfolds
Lessons learned, pages turned
Then you blink and the next thing you know
It's dear little freckle-faced girl wrapped up in my arms
You've got his nose, my eyes and both of our hearts
I can't believe the future I see
Looking back at me
Go and chase your dreams, don't you dare believe
All the haters that tell you that it can't be done
'Cause you've got a light that will outshine the sun
You'll fall down sometimes, but you were born to fly
And someday you'll see what I see
Looking back at me
Looking back at me
Looking back at me
