Letter to my 13 Year Old self

[00:11.84] Don't you worry 'bout your curly hair

[00:22.19] Clothes that don't quite fit you anywhere

[00:32.29] Voices echo in the gym

[00:37.86] Another girl's had her first kiss

[00:42.91] Please, don't think too much of it, darling

[00:54.07] I'm so sorry that they pick you last

[01:03.89] Try to say your foreign name and laugh

[01:15.58] I know that you feel loud, so different from the crowd

[01:25.14] Of big blue eyes, and long blonde hair, and boys that stare

[01:33.14] But, baby, know that

[01:37.66] You'll grow up

[01:44.30] And grow so tough and charm them

[01:50.94] Write your story, fall in love a little too

[01:58.64] The things you thought you'd never do

[02:08.21] I wish I could go back and give her a squeeze

[02:12.72] Myself at 13

[02:15.91] And just let her know, know that she's beautiful

[02:32.91] Keep on going with your silly dream

[02:43.00] Life is prettier than it may seem

[02:53.63] One day, you'll be up on stage

[02:58.94] Little girls will scream your name

[03:05.32] The days of tears and failure fears

[03:09.57] And no one cares, will all make sense, 'cause

[03:19.93] You'll grow up

[03:23.38] And grow so confident, and

[03:30.02] Write your story, fall in love a little too

[03:41.44] The things you thought you'd never do

[03:46.75] I wish I could go back and give her a squeeze

[03:51.80] Myself at 13

[03:54.99] And just let her know, know that she's beautiful

[04:06.88] Ooh-ooh
