Mother's Heart

I see myself in the mirror At eight years old, wondering will I look like the faces I see on the magazines Will the world think I'm pretty If I dress like this, walk like that See myself in the mirror I remember how I stole my mother's makeup, trying to look all grown up What are you doing? She said, what are you doing? Trying to cover up my freckles Wanna look just like the others What are you doing? She said, the truth is You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart We are designed like this You are the greatest gift You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart I see myself in the school yard At twelve years old I was told I didn't look like the others So I choose to take control I will do it on purpose If I don't fit in, I won't fit in See myself in the mirror I remember how I cut my childhood curls off Forgot my natural colours What are you doing? I thought, what are you doing? I'm a rebel for no reason Still searching for the real me What are you doing? You know the truth is You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart We are designed like this You are the greatest gift You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart If I have a daughter I'll sit her down and say Don't ever let them change you Don't even fade away If I have a daughter I'll sit her down and say Don't break your mother's heart 'Cause she made you this way You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart We are designed like this You are the greatest gift You're perfect, you're worth it Don't go breaking your mother's heart Don't go breaking Don't go breaking Don't go breaking Don't go breaking your mother's heart Don't go breaking Don't go breaking Don't go breaking Don't go breaking your mother's heart
