Half as Big as Life

Did you ever stop, really stop, and take a look Take a look, take a really good luck at yourself? I just took a peek, really peeked, to tell the truth Through my eyes, I don't look so good to myself Half as big as life, that's me But that's not the way I always mean to be Half as big as life, that's small But deep in my heart I can feel That I'm ten feet tall - ten feet tall I know that Inside of myself there's a man, the kind of man You would like, if you were just willing to look I've got lots of dreams And my dreams will take me far Very far, a cover is not the whole book Half as big as life, they say But they're gonna see how wrong they are Someday Half as big as life, that's small But I wasn't born to be looked at As five feet tall, no, not me I want a lot And I know that I'll get it all Just like someone who's Twice as big as life
