Mothers Heart by Stefanie Heinzmann Lyrics
[Strophe 1]
I see myself in the mirror
At 8 years old wondering
Will I look like the faces
I see on the magazines
Will the world think I'm pretty
If I dress like this, walk like that
See myself in the mirror
I remember how
I stole my mother's make up
Tryin' to look all grown up
What are you doing
She said, what are you doing
Tryin' to cover up my freckles
Wanna look just like the others
What are you doing
She said the truth is:
[Refrain]
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
We are designed like this
You are the greatest gift
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
[Strophe 2]
I see myself in the school yard
At 12 years old, I was told
I didn't look like the others
So I chose to take control
I will do it on purpose
If I don't fit in, I won't fit in
See myself in the mirror
I remember how
I cut my childhood curls off
Forgot my natural color
What are you doing
I thought, what are you doing
I'm a rebel for no reason
Still searching for the real me
What are you doing
You know the truth is:
[Refrain]
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
We are designed like this
You are the greatest gift
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
[Strophe 3]
If I have a daughter
I'll sit her down and say
Don't ever let them change you
Don't ever fade away
If I have a daughter
I'll sit her down and say
Don't break your mothers heart
Cuz she made you this way
[Refrain]
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
We are designed like this
You are the greatest gift
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
Don't go breaking
Don't go breaking
Don't go breaking
Don't go breaking your mothers heart 2x
I see myself in the mirror
At 8 years old wondering
Will I look like the faces
I see on the magazines
Will the world think I'm pretty
If I dress like this, walk like that
See myself in the mirror
I remember how
I stole my mother's make up
Tryin' to look all grown up
What are you doing
She said, what are you doing
Tryin' to cover up my freckles
Wanna look just like the others
What are you doing
She said the truth is:
[Refrain]
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
We are designed like this
You are the greatest gift
You're perfect
You're worth it
Don't go breaking your mothers heart
