She always had a self esteem
That she kept away from the world
She always had the biggest dreams
Of a special kind of girl
Always needed the support she craved
Never asking for a thing
With all the cards, she has to play
The dealer’s always winning
All she ever wanted
Was the love that she lost
All she ever dreamed
Was to stop paying the cost
All she ever wanted was you
She was always there
All along
Playing over and over
Your favorite song
She never could get away
From the burdens of her heart
Until the day came
When she took over the stars
Revealing every scar
All she ever wanted
Was the love that she lost
All she ever dreamed
Was to stop paying the cost
All she ever wanted was you
She never could get away
