Half as Big as Life
Did you ever stop, really stop, and take a look
Take a look, a really good luck at yourself?
I just took a peek, really piqued, to tell the truth
Through my eyes, I don't look so good to myself
Half as big as life, that's me
But that's not the way I always mean to be
Half as big as life, that's small
But deep in my heart I can feel that I'm ten feet tall
Ten feet tall
I know that inside of myself there's a girl, the kind of girl
You would like, if you were just willing to look
I've got lots of dreams and my dreams will take me far
Very far, a cover is not the whole book
Half as big as life, they say
But they're gonna see how wrong they are someday
Half as big as life, that's small
But I wasn't born to be looked at as five feet tall
No, not me
I want a lot and I know that I'll get it all
Just like someone who's twice as big as life
Take a look, a really good luck at yourself?
I just took a peek, really piqued, to tell the truth
Through my eyes, I don't look so good to myself
Half as big as life, that's me
But that's not the way I always mean to be
Half as big as life, that's small
But deep in my heart I can feel that I'm ten feet tall
Ten feet tall
I know that inside of myself there's a girl, the kind of girl
You would like, if you were just willing to look
I've got lots of dreams and my dreams will take me far
Very far, a cover is not the whole book
Half as big as life, they say
But they're gonna see how wrong they are someday
Half as big as life, that's small
But I wasn't born to be looked at as five feet tall
No, not me
I want a lot and I know that I'll get it all
Just like someone who's twice as big as life
