My teacher at 5
She said I very rarely smiled
And it’s true I was a sensitive child
I’d suffered no harm
I just felt safer at home with my mum
‘Cause the world felt too overwhelming and wild

And to this day
I’m still funny that way
Many people have said
I live inside my own head
They think I’m lost and blue

But they should see me
When I’m in love
When I light up
The darkest night
They should see me
When I take off
Into the sky
Yeah, they should see me
When I take off…

Around school at 16
They might have thought me an ice queen
And it’s true I didn’t beg for company
My eyes weren’t closed
I was just a bit shy and self-controlled
Still unsure of these puzzling forces in me

And to this day
I’m still awkward that way
Many people have asked
Many times in the past
Girl, are you lost and blue?

But they should see me
When I’m in love
When I light up
The darkest night
They should see me
When I take off
Into the sky
Yeah, they should see me

When I take off…
