GLITTER GIRL

She's wearing glitter on her shoes again today

Even though her steps ain't quite the same

There's sequins on her sweater, silver in her hair

Still trying to catch the light from her chair

Verse 2:

The sunset on the water, the moonshine on the lake

Every sparkle in this world seemed to know her name

Like she had some kinship with all that catches light

A kindred soul to everything that shines

Verse 3:

We didn't always see things eye to eye back then

Sometimes her words would cut me like the wind

But I'm finally understanding what she couldn't say

She just wanted me to shine in my own way

Chorus:

All that glitter, all that shine

Wasn't just the way she dressed, it was her heart on display

Spent her whole heart trying to make others see

The light she saw in them, the way they could be

She wore her sparkle on the outside every day

Just hoping we'd catch a glint along the way

Bridge:

And all those times I thought we were just worlds apart

She was standing right beside me, trying to show me my own heart

Not above me, not below me, just eye to eye

Desperate for me to see the shine that she saw inside

Chorus:

All that glitter, all that shine

Wasn't just the way she dressed, it was her heart on display

Spent her whole heart trying to make others see

The light she saw in them, the way they could be

She wore her sparkle on the outside every day

Just hoping we'd catch a glint along the way

Outro:

She's wearing glitter on her shoes today

More beautiful than I ever knew

'Cause I finally understand

What all the sparkle means
