One of a Kind (Ara's Song)
from Another Shot by Jet City Crawl
lyrics
They broke your heart
On Thanksgiving Day
Forgot all about you
Had nothin' to say
You went home and cried
You didn't' know why
You let them get to you
Just keep your chin up
You'll be okay
He broke your heart
He left you alone
He had somebody else
Waiting at home
You thought it was love
And maybe it was
But not the kind that you want
Just keep your chin up
You belong on a throne
Your mother told you
When you were little
Your face was all freckled
From the lies that you told
You tried to be good
You did what you could
But it was never enough
Just keep your chin up
You're beautiful
Oh how the past can make
The present hard to bear
You want a better life
But don't know if you dare
You were dealt a bad hand
There's no doubt in my mind
But I want you to know
You're one of a kind
You went off to college
You got your degree
You're writing a novel
And makin' money
You're changing your stars
You've gotten so far
Everything will work out right
Just keep your chin up
Just wait and see
Just keep your chin up
Just wait and see
Just keep your chin up
Just wait and see
Just keep your chin up
Just wait and see
.....

Just wait and see
Just keep your chin up
Just wait and see
