| She knew she was different
|
| When she was nine years old
|
| She had a little trouble
|
| Doing what she was told
|
| Strong-willed, spirit-filled, innocent, wild
|
| Not your typical yes ma’am, no ma’am child
|
| It was her life and she was gonna live it
|
| And if it took her heart and soul
|
| She was gonna give it
|
| She was young enough to question
|
| Old enough to know
|
| There’s no place in this world she couldn’t go
|
| And if the road runs out
|
| She’s gonna build a bridge
|
| To the other side
|
| That’s just how she is
|
| That’s just how she is, she is, she is, she is
|
| The day she turned eighteen
|
| She instinctively knew
|
| Love is the teacher
|
| Life is the school
|
| And she figured it out one fateful day
|
| That if she played it safe she would never play
|
| And in that moment hearts dream about
|
| A girl walked in and a woman walked out
|
| She was young enough to question
|
| Old enough to know
|
| There’s no place in this world she couldn’t go
|
| And if the road runs out
|
| She’s gonna build a bridge
|
| To the other side
|
| That’s just how she is
|
| That’s just how she is, she is, she is, she is
|
| Driven by a fire
|
| Burning deep inside
|
| She says if life is what you make it
|
| I’m gonna make it mine
|
| She was young enough to question
|
| Old enough to know
|
| There’s no place in this world she couldn’t go
|
| And if the road runs out
|
| She’s gonna build a bridge
|
| To the other side
|
| That’s just how she is
|
| That’s just how she is, she is, she is, she is |
