TITLE: The Others

I wrote this one a while ago...but it's for all the beautiful girls out there who haven't found out just how special they really are!
She slams the door behind her and runs off down the road

The tears flowing down her face is her weakness she’s been told

She looks around to see if even one will glance her way

Why is she invisible on a clear and sunny day?


CHORUS:

She doesn’t look like all the others a sense of purity defined

She has a smile like her mother but it’s soon to fade in time

So she prays to her God and she stays true to her heart

Still why’s everything so hard?


Amidst the scars and bruises and a shattered broken heart

She finds a little love and some forgiveness on her part

Still she finds it hard to give herself away

And now she hesitates when someone looks her way




REPEAT CHORUS:





One day walking down the road she sees a little girl

Tiny thin and fragile with a teardrop by her curls

She stoops down to hug her and says “It’s okay”

And the girl looks at her and says “I see you today”


CHORUS REVISED:

But you don’t look like all the others a sense of purity defined

You have a smile like my mother that’s sure to last all through time

And just pray to your God and just stay true to your heart

Cause not everything’s that hard


Now a fine young woman, she makes sure to stop and pray

For all the other girls who are invisible today

She stoops down to tell them just reach out in love

It’ll never fail you; you’ll get blessings from above


CHORUS REVISED:

Cause He didn’t make you like the others a sense of purity defined

You have a smile like your mother that’s sure to last you through time

And just pray to our God and just stay true to your heart

And not everything’s that hard

Cause He didn’t make you like the others
