Matthew West
Looking Back at Me
[Verse 1]
Dear little freckle-faced girl in the picture frame
Trying to fit in just makes you feel out of place
You're scared and insecure, anything but sure
Of who you are
[Verse 2]
I know you don't know me but I used to wear those shoes
There's a few things that I want to say to you
Life sure goes fast, this too shall pass
I promise you
[Chorus]
Go and chase your dreams, don't you dare believe
All the doubters that tell you it can't be done
'Cause you've got a light that will outshine the sun
You'll fall down sometimes, but you were born to fly
And someday you'll see what I see
Looking back at me
[Verse 3]
You'll get your heart broken but it's gonna beat again
Walk through a storm, but you'll come out stronger than
You were before the rain, there's purpose in the pain
I promise you
[Chorus]
Go and chase your dreams, don't you dare believe
All the doubters that tell you it can't be done
'Cause you've got a light that will outshine the sun
You'll fall down sometimes, but you were born to fly
And someday you'll see what I see
Looking back at me
[Bridge]
Round and round it goes
This crazy life unfolds
Lessons learned, pages turned
Then you blink and the next thing you know
[Verse 4]
It's dear little freckle-faced girl wrapped up in my arms
You've got his nose, my eyes and both of our hearts
I can't believe the future I see
Looking back at me
[Chorus]
Go and chase your dreams, don't you dare believe
All the doubters that tell you it can't be done
'Cause you've got a light that will outshine the sun
You'll fall down sometimes, but you were born to fly
And someday you'll see what I see
Looking back at me...
[Outro]
Looking back at me
Looking back at me
