There was a little girl inside me
Who stopped believing fairytales were real
She learned to survive instead of dream
Learned how to hide what she could feel
Then you walked in so gently
Like sunlight through a stormy sky
You didn’t ask me to be perfect
You just held my heart and stayed awhile
“Sparkle in Her Eyes”
Verse 1
I was tired of empty promises
Of love that only came halfway
Built my walls out of disappointment
Learned to smile and walk away
Then you showed up with your kindness
No games, no shadows, no disguise
And somehow through your steady hands
You brought the light back to my eyes
Pre-Chorus
You love me soft when the world feels hard
You see the parts I tried to hide
And every broken piece inside me
Finally feels safe tonight
Chorus
‘Cause you gave the little girl inside me
Her sparkle in her eyes again
You made me believe in forever
In being loved without pretending
And every time you hold me close
It heals a place I thought was gone
Baby, all my life I searched for this
A love that finally feels like home
Verse 2
You don’t make me beg for affection
You don’t leave me questioning my worth
You love me loud in all the quiet ways
Like I’m the best thing on this earth
And when life gets heavy on my shoulders
You carry pieces of the pain
You remind me I don’t have to fight alone
I finally found my safe place
Bridge
So if the world falls down around us
If the nights get cold and long
I’ll still look at you the same way
Like the answer in my favorite song
Because loving you feels easy
Like my soul finally found its way
And that little girl inside my heart
Smiles brighter every day
Final Chorus
You gave the little girl inside me
Her sparkle in her eyes again
Turned all my hurt into something beautiful
And taught my heart to trust again
Now every dream I was too scared to dream
Feels possible with you
Baby, after all this time
I found the love I searched for in you.
