Trisha Yearwood - Standing Out In A Crowd lyrics

Mother said stand up straight

Don't let your classmates make you feel

Like you don't belong

So you're not like the rest of them

Someday the best of them

Will realize they were wrong

But in my world, different meant lonely,

The last place I wanted to be, was

Standing out in a crowd

Where the spotlight finds you, and singles you out.

What are they whispering about?

Thinking up ways to take up less space

Can't see the grace in it

Standing out in a crowd

Too short, too tall, flower against the wall

The last one chosen to play

Too smart, too dumb, too strange a place to be from

Same shoes everyday

With all these ways to be different,

Then maybe that's how you fit in, by

Standing out in a crowd

Where the spotlight finds you, and singles you out

What are they whispering about?

Thinking up ways to take up less space

Instead of embracing it

Standing out in a crowd

It's funny how now

It's not such a bad place to be

Standing out in a crowd

Standing out in a crowd

Standing out in a crowd

Where the spotlight finds you and singles you out

What are they whispering about?

Thinking up ways to take up less space

There's no escaping it

Standing out in a crowd
