Verse 1
Her Life was scattered all over the place
She had a million pieces to replace
Her life was heading for a great big fall
Somehow she just needed to stand tall

CHORUS
There?s a special place inside ourselves
And its bigger than the sun itself
When you learn to smile you let it out
You can have it when you love yourself

There?s a special place inside ourselves
And its bigger than the sun itself
When you learn to smile you let it out
You can have it when you love yourself

Verse2
She tried to find the pieces from her past
She knew it was her one and only chance
She was crying as her star began to rise
The tears welled up inside her big brown eyes

CHORUS
There?s a special place inside ourselves
And its bigger than the sun itself
When you learn to smile you let it out
You can have it when you love yourself

There?s a special place inside ourselves
And its bigger than the sun itself
When you learn to smile you let it out
You can have it when you love yourself

CHORUS
There?s a special place inside ourselves
And its bigger than the sun itself
When you learn to smile you let it out
You can have it when you love yourself

There?s a special place inside ourselves
And its bigger than the sun itself
When you learn to smile you let it out
You can have it when you love yourself
