There's a girl in a picture dressed in black
Looks kinda familiar, I recognize that
Pain in her eyes, a little scared and unsure
But it ain't there anymore
'Cause there's a girl in the mirror
With the same sweet face
A few more lines, from a few mistakes
Miles behind her, and miles to go
She's got somethin' to show for it
She's been down in the dust
Hit her knees but she got back up
Got her feet on the ground but her head's in the clouds to stay
She's been quiet too long
But you can't steal a songbird's song
She was drownin' in noise
Now she's got somethin' to say
She's come a long way
She's come a long, long way
She was dyin' for love lookin' everywhere
Tryna fit circles into squares
Settled for less than she ever deserved
Hard to believe I used to be her
She had a lot to learn, yeah
She's been down in the dust
Hit her knees but she got back up
Got her feet on the ground but her head's in the clouds to stay
She's been quiet too long
But you can't steal a songbird's song
She was drownin' in noise
Now she's got somethin' to say
She's come a long way
She's come a long, long way
She's come a long way but she ain't done yet
She's come a long way, got a lot of road left
She's come a long way but she ain't done yet
She's come a long way, yeah
She's been down in the dust
Hit her knees but she got back up
Got her feet on the ground but her head's in the clouds to stay, yeah
She's been quiet too long
But you can't steal a songbird's song
She was drownin' in noise
Now she's got somethin' to say
She's come a long way
She's come a long, long way
She's come a long way but she ain't done yet
She's come a long way, got a lot of road left (She's come a long, long way)
She's come a long way but she ain't done yet
She's come a long way, yeah
She's come a long way but she ain't done yet
She's come a long way, got a lot of road left
She's come a long way but she ain't done yet
I've come a long way
