Don't think that I don't see the way you struggle
watching you struggle
don't think that i don't feel you turn away
every time I turn awayPlease believe that I believe
when I'm praying that youre right beside me praying
for the same thingYou're 5'3"
born in Carolina
front pew pretty
Friday night freeYou're a dashboard singing
little red corvette
sweet as forgiveness
from the moment that we metI never knew I had a fighterI know when your silence sigh says more than a scream
I know that when you say that you hate me
it ain't what you meanWhen you say that youre leavin'
youre leaving but only for a while
for just a whileYou're stubborn
and strong
crazy as New Orleans
your faded blue denim
a diamond on the town
my t-shirt in the morning
midnight in my hands
now you're still here
I just don't understandI never knew I have a fighter
just when I thought I knew everything about yaYou're 5'3"
born in Carolina
still front pew pretty
and Friday night freeYou're a dashboard singing
little red corvette
sweet as forgiveness
from the moment that we metNever knew I had a fighter
never knew I had a fighterPlease believe that I believe
when I'm praying that you're right beside me prayingNever knew I had a fighter
