that's all that matters

and he may think I'm like every girl
but I know the difference
I know the songs I'm waiting to sing
and that's all that matters
that's all that matters to me

people know when they've let you down
they don't need my rage to cut them down
they have their broken mirrors
and pairs of eyes
such mournful, regretful eyes


and I will move on
I will knock down their doll houses
and they will miss the stars
I poured so carefully
no longer twinkling in their eyes
such hope amidst dark shadows
each honeyed word
soothing the storm swirling in their minds

and he may think I'm like every girl
but I know the difference
I know the songs I'm waiting to sing
and that's all that matters
that's all that matters to me

I went searching and found fury flames
and I realized I was the only one
the only one who only wanted to love

no matter what they do
I never let me down
no matter each silent lie
I'll sing my song loud

and he may think I'm like every girl
but I know the difference
I know the songs I'm waiting to sing
and that's all that matters
that's all that matters to me

and everyone expects nothing
so does it really hurt anything if I hope for the moon
and hope for more than this
for more than now
for someone who will make things right

because I'm not like every girl
I'm unlike anyone he knows
and that's all that matters
that's all that matters to him
