Spent a lifetime in the mirror
Always afraid of what someone else would say
I wanted to be strong
So it took some time to tell you
But you knew from the things I’d say
"Why do you say that babe? "
"You’re my beautiful, you’re my heart"
"And you’re beautiful just this way"

When I took the time to tell you
You took the time to listen to me too
Now I see, I see today
I see, I see my face

Spent a lifetime in the mirror
Picking apart what I couldn’t change
But I saw my mother, my father, my brother
In my face
In my face
Most the time it was the only thing that kept me going
Other times -- just a grip of shame
You came along and showed me who I am
What it means

To be loved
To be one
To be loved
To feel some

Now I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
And, "You’re my beautiful. "
"And you’re beautiful just this way. "

When I took the time to tell you
You took the time to listen to me too
Now I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow

I spent a lifetime in the mirror
Picking apart, what I couldn't change
Now I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
I see, I see tomorrow
What you saw today
