The Girl With the Big Heart

Verse 1

She talked to the trees like they could hear

Sang to the sky when nobody was near

Hands full of daisies, dirt on her knees

She gave away love like it grew on trees

Verse 2

She felt every whisper, every goodbye

Cried when the moon went out of the sky

They said, “you’re too soft, you’re too much, too kind”

So she started folding up pieces of her mind

Chorus

But the girl with the big heart

Never meant to be small

She just learned how to hide it

Behind a wall

Still the girl with the big heart

Is under it all

Still beating

Still believing

Still standing tall

Verse 3

She loved every stranger like they were kin

Let all the broken people in

Got hurt for trusting, hurt for trying

Kept on loving, kept on crying

Pre-Chorus

They tried to toughen her up with fear

But tenderness was what kept her here

Chorus

’Cause the girl with the big heart

Never meant to be small

She just learned how to hide it

Behind a wall

Still the girl with the big heart

Is under it all

Still beating

Still believing

Still standing tall

Bridge

If you ever see her in your eyes

Little and lonely, wondering why

Tell her she’s not too much to be loved

She’s exactly enough

Final Chorus

Yeah the girl with the big heart

Was always brave

Even when she didn’t know

How to be saved

And the girl with the big heart

Still lives in your chest

She’s not broken

She’s just

Been doing her best

(soft hum, fade out)
