Lyrics
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
She walks with long strides
Head held up high
With a smile on her face
Charm in her eyes
But deep inside she's carrying a weight
Her heart's heavy
But she won't let it break
[Verse]
She dances through life
Elegant and refined
A master of disguise
She keeps pain confined
But in the moments when she's all alone
The tears start falling
She can't hide it
She's grown
[Chorus]
Walk with long strides and smile
Baby
Girl
Just for a while
But don't forget it's okay to let your sadness show
You don't have to act all charming and elegant
You know
Behind that perfect facade
There's a girl with a heart that wants to be true
[Chorus]
Walk with long strides and smile
Baby
Girl
Just for a while
But don't forget it's okay to let your sadness show
You don't have to act all charming and elegant
You know
Behind that perfect facade
There's a girl with a heart that wants to be true
[Verse]
In the quiet of night
When the world's asleep
She lets her guard down
Allows herself to weep
The strength that she shows
Isn't always what she feels
But she dreams of a day
When she can just be real
[Verse]
She laughs with her friends
Lights up the room
But her mind's a battlefield
Shadows in the gloom
Yet every morning she rises
Ready to face the day
Hoping one day she'll find
A more honest way
Shadows in the gloom
Yet every morning she rises
Ready to face the day
Hoping one day she'll find
A more honest way
[Chorus]
Walk with long strides and smile
Baby, girl, just for a while
But don't forget it's okay to let your sadness show
You don't have to act all charming and elegant, you know
Behind that perfect facade
There's a girl with a heart that wants to be true
[Bridge]
You don't have to be perfect
It's okay to fall apart
Let the world see your true self
Reveal your beautiful heart
In the tears and the laughter
In every single scar
There's a strength that's unspoken
Just be who you are
[Chorus]
Walk with long strides and smile
Baby, girl, just for a while
But don't forget it's okay to let your sadness show
You don't have to act all charming and elegant, you know
Behind that perfect facade
There's a girl with a heart that wants to be true
[Chorus]
Walk with long strides and smile
Baby, girl, just for a while
But don't forget it's okay to let your sadness show
You don't have to act all charming and elegant, you know
Behind that perfect facade
There's a girl with a heart that wants to be true
In the tears and the laughter
In every single scar
There's a strength that's unspoken
Just be who you are
[Chorus]
Walk with long strides and smile
Baby, girl, just for a while
But don't forget it's okay to let your sadness show
You don't have to act all charming and elegant, you know
Behind that perfect facade
There's a girl with a heart that wants to be true
[Chorus]
Walk with long strides and smile
Baby, girl, just for a while
But don't forget it's okay to let your sadness show
You don't have to act all charming and elegant, you know
Behind that perfect facade
There's a girl with a heart that wants to be true
[Chorus]
Walk with long strides and smile
Baby, girl, just for a while
But don't forget it's okay to let your sadness show
You don't have to act all charming and elegant, you know
Behind that perfect facade
There's a girl with a heart that wants to be true
