Verse 1
I saw the light fade from your eyes today
And it cut straight through my chest
You tried to hide the hurt behind your smile
But I know you better than the rest
You’re carrying the weight of every voice
That tells you who you’re supposed to be
But I wish you could see yourself the way
That you look when you’re free
Pre-Chorus
’Cause you’re stronger than the shadows
Brighter than you know
And you don’t need permission
Just to let your true self show
Chorus
I just wanna see you a little bit happier today
Wipe the tears that fall and chase the pain away
Don’t let anybody tell you how to live your life
Or say your dreams ain’t worth the fight
You’re good at what you love—don’t ever walk away
I just wanna see you a little bit happier today
Verse 2
You’ve been trying so hard to please the world
But the world don’t know your heart
They don’t see the fire in the things you love
Or the beauty in your art
And when they say to change your path
I hope you hear my voice instead
’Cause you deserve to follow all the dreams
That echo in your head
Pre-Chorus
No, you don’t need to bend just to make them stay
You were made to rise in your own way
Chorus
I just wanna see you a little bit happier today
Wipe the tears that fall and chase the pain away
Don’t let anybody tell you how to live your life
Or say your dreams ain’t worth the fight
You’re good at what you love—don’t ever walk away
I just wanna see you a little bit happier today
Bridge
And when it feels like you’re breaking
I’ll be right here, I’m not shaking
Hold your heart the way you hold your breath
Baby, you deserve the best
Don’t forget…
Final Chorus
I just wanna see you a little bit happier today
Feel the warmth return and watch the clouds fade away
No voice but yours should guide the choices that you make
Don’t let their doubts take your dreams away
You’re good at what you love—don’t ever let it fade
I just wanna see you a little bit happier today
