CORRECTAR LA LETRA
Letra : What I Wish I Would Have Told Her
Brown hair, blue eyes, and she said she wasn't pretty
She started to cry that day when she sat down with me
She said my speech had spoken to her that day in class
I wouldn't have known, I would've walked right past
My mind was on the next class and my half-written paper
But all that faded when she said her dad had raped her
I guess she trusted me
Or maybe it just came out
What I expected for the day didn't take the same route
I went a little numb, my heart beat a little faster
Here was a beautiful girl who had only known disaster
We talked that day until the classroom went empty
She didn't want my help, she wasn't looking for my sympathy
Maybe she just wanted a stranger to feel her pain
To listen to her story and remember her name
You see, suicidal thoughts, eating disorders, and a broken heart
A lack of love in her life had torn her apart
She told me to keep spreading love and that she loved my speech
She walked away that day suddenly out of reach
You're beautiful, you even talked to me in class that day
I didn't get a chance to tell you that before you walked away
I know you hate mirrors because you don't like what you see
Memories from the past have kept you from being free
But you're beautiful, you're strong, and you're loved
By a billion loving people and the God above
I'm sorry about what happened, and I wish it weren't true
But what I do know is there's a billion people just like you
Millions of people damaged by others
Scared and alone like kids under covers
Fat people, skinny people, short people, tall people
White people, black people, brown people, all people
Just people
Hurt by other people
Just people
The strong and the feeble
You're beautiful even though your lives haven't been
You're beautiful even in this world of sin
You might be [?] by men, but you're loved by Him
Broken homes and ruined lives, but you're still beautiful in God's eyes
So you're not alone in your pain, you're not alone in this life
You were saved by grace
You are loved by Christ
