Everything They Said

She wakes up every morning Looks in the mirror And as bad as it seems Everything's gonna be fine Oh it's a sad sad story But nobody's gonna break her This girl ain't lived The first day of her life Oh and to a selfish souls she's nothing They just point and make their jokes But not a tears is gonna fall From that little girls face And I'd like to tell them something She's everything they won't be You don't know what life's about Until it's been taken away So in her own little dreams This is what she sees She'll be walking through a field of flowers With the sunshine shining down And singing out loud to her favorite song Like there ain't nobody around And then she spreads those wings to fly Oh I swear that girl's a saint She thanks the good lord everyday For making her Everything they said she ain't She woke up again this morning But from a hospital bed With tear filled eyes They told her the news She said don't cry now mama There's a better place for me Let the man upstairs do what he's got to do And when she lays down tonight She's gonna spread those wings and fly She'll be walking through a field of flowers With the sunshine shining down And singing out loud to her favorite song Like there ain't nobody around And then she spreads those wings to fly Oh I swear that girl's a saint She thanks the good lord everyday For making her Everything they said she ain't She'll be walking through a field of flowers With the sunshine shining down And singing out loud to her favorite song Like there ain't nobody around And then she spreads those wings to fly Oh I swear that girl's a saint She thanks the good lord everyday For making her Everything they said she ain't Everything they said she ain't
