love song for ourselves

so we learn to breathe cos it's hard to see
the world from beneath our mother's skin

and we learned to cry when we waved goodbye
and opened up our eyes to live, to die

and we learn to dance so when we're on the ground
it doesn't have to look like we have fallen down

and we learn to dream cos that's the only way
to make the world seem better than it seems today

and we've grown so beautiful
we've grown so beautiful
we've grown so beautiful

and we learn to lie cos the truth takes sides
and words are the safest places to hide

and we learn to leap before we start looking
cos life's too deep and getting deeper by the second

but i think we'll be ok cos it's a lovely lovely day

cos we've learned to live between the lines that they have written
even though we hardly rhyme but we're poetry in motion

and we learn to love love love is what we're made of
all this time that we are given is our chance to make a difference

do i make a difference to you?

and we've grown so beautiful
we've grown so beautiful
we've grown so beautiful
