In a box under the stairs I wrote a note To myself when I was just a little girl It said "Dear Mom and Dad don't read this Cause I keep my dreams a secret" And I read every night before they tucked me in In hopes that this paper and pen would take me away I said to myself they can't pull you under your heart is much braver And the beauty in life is all what you offer They can't steal your thunder They can't steal your thunder Through a piece of glass I kept it all away Where my world could settle in a different place I could find hope in seasons Cause over that hill I'd leave this behind I said to myself they can't pull you under your heart is much braver And the beauty in life is all what you offer They can't steal your thunder They can't steal your thunder In a little room inside this house of mine Are the melodies and lyrics I can find I said to myself they can't pull you under your heart is much braver And the beauty in life is all what you offer They can't steal your thunder They can't steal your thunder
