Stubborn Heart

There is something I wish to tell you Long ago, she was just a girl She lived inside her own small dream A paper moon in a fragile world But the road grew sharp And the days got hard Still she stood back up With a stubborn heart Her voice was heard Her voice was heard Across the world, across the world She never let it die Her voice was heard Her voice was heard And every scar became a light Her voice was heard She made her name from shaking hands From nights that asked for more She sang through doubt, she sang through rain Till strangers knew what she was for And the road grew sharp And the days got hard Still she stood back up With a stubborn heart Her voice was heard Her voice was heard Across the world, across the world She never let it die Her voice was heard Her voice was heard And every scar became a light Her voice was heard 'twas not a dream nor a lie But a girl who wouldn't fold She gave her ache a melody And turned the hurt to gold Her voice was heard Her voice was heard Across the world, across the world Her voice was heard Her voice was heard And every scar became a light Her voice was heard
