Lyrics
whole wide world
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You run slower, stand lower
They say you'll never be as strong as your big brother
Just sit tight, tongue-tied
And take every punch they throw with your head held high
'Cause you're too emotional, you don't wanna cry
Come on, be tough just like one of the guys
Close your eyes, internalize
All the boy scouts ruling your life
Be strong, little girl
Take on all the weight of the whole wide world
'Cause it's up to you to make the whole world better
It's up to you to make the whole world-
Be strong, little girl
Take on all the weight of the whole wide world
'Cause it's up to you to make the whole world better
It's up to you to make the whole world better
You've had enough, you speak your mind
But you say all the wrong things at the wrong time
And now you're tired, don't wanna try
'Cause if you do, and you fail, then they'll think they were right
'Cause you're too emotional, you just wanna cry
Come on, be tough just like one of the guys
Damned if you do, damned if you don't
Hold your breath just to stay afloat
Be strong, little girl
Take on all the weight of the whole wide world
'Cause it's up to you to make the whole world better
It's up to you to make the whole world-
Be strong, little girl
Take on all the weight of the whole wide world
'Cause it's up to you to make the whole world better
It's up to you to make the whole world better
She's got the whole world in her hands
Whole world in her hands
She's got the whole world in her hands
Whole world in her hands
Next time they say you're cute, petite
(She's got the whole world in her hands)
Stand up, be loud, show them what it means
(Whole world in her hands)
To be brave, be strong, be so damn tough
(She's got the whole world in her hands)
You thrive in a world that says you ain't enough
(Whole world)
Be strong, little girl
Take on all the weight of the whole wide world
'Cause it's up to you to make the whole world better
It's up to you to make the whole world-
Be strong, little girl
Take on all the weight of the whole wide world
'Cause it's up to you to make the whole world better
It's up to you to make the whole world better
Whole world in her hands (hey!)
Whole world in her hands
She's got the whole world in her hands
Whole world in her hands
She's got the whole world in her hands
(You got the whole world)
Whole world in her hands
(You got the whole world)
She's got the whole world in her hands
(You got the whole world)
Whole world in her hands
(You got the whole world)
She's got the whole world in her hands
Whole world in her hands
