nobody ever told you

Singer:carrie underwood

take off all the makeup

girl

shine your light

show the world

don't be shy

don't be scared

you don't have to hide under there

let's throw away all the magazines

turn off the static on the tv

wish you could see yourself the way i do

nobody ever told you

nobody ever told you

you shine like a diamond

glitter like gold

and you need to know

what nobody ever told you

yeah

la la la la la

mirror mirror on the wall

acting like it knows it all

tells you lies of vanity

it doesn't care what's underneath

all hung up on the negative

doesn't have to be the way it is

wish you could see yourself the way i do

nobody ever told you

yeah

nobody ever told you

you shine like a diamond

glitter like gold

and you need to know

what nobody ever told you

na na na na. free as a bird up on a wire

just like a flower growing wild

you're beautiful

you're beautiful

nobody ever told you

yeah

nobody ever told you

you shine like a diamond

glitter like gold

and you need to know

what nobody ever told you

you shine like a diamond

glitter like gold

you need to know

what nobody ever told you

na na na na. oh

you're free as a bird up on a wire

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah

just like a flower growin' wild

just like a flower growin' wild

na na na na.
