[ROSE]
An awkward girl with her guitar
Keepin' to herself
Friday nights alone
With the records on her shelf

A waitress pourin' ginger ale and Coke
Someone you ask out
As a joke

I've been that girl who fades away
Accepting what I've got
Stuck in what I am
And everything I'm not

I've only seen this tiny world I'm in
Where I can only be what I've been

See a world
Beautiful and strange
Spinnin' off somewhere
Sayin' "Meet me there"

Look, look
How fast it runs away
Singin' "Follow close
And reach for me
See that you've got so much more to be"
Before it's over
Before it's over

I can't go write another song
I'm too afraid to play
Or dream how things could change
But only see what's in my way

I can't go back to what I was before
Now that I can see so much more

See a world
Beautiful and strange
On a one-way track
And it won't come back

Look, look
How fast it runs away
Singin' "Follow close
And reach for me
See that you've got so much more to be"

Before it's over

I never even knew a world was waiting
Somehow, something awful made that world appear
Maybe this sounds crazy
But I'm happy that it happened
Happy that I came
Happy that I'm here
I can
See a world
Beautiful and strange
Can you see it too?

It's so close
Don't let it get away
There's so much to do

Before it's over
Before it's over
