The you that you see

You tell me who you see in me,

A version I can\'t quite believe.

You speak of light, I only feel gray,

You see the dawn in my dark day.

 

You say I\'m strong, I feel so small,

You see me standing, after the fall.

You call me worthy, kind, and true,

I wish I saw me like you do.

 

You see a heart both soft and brave,

A love worth giving, a soul to save.

I only hear the doubt in me,

But you show love that sets me free.

 

So tell me again, say it slow,

The woman you already know.

And maybe someday I will see,

The me you see inside of me.
