For Wowser - Jessica Riddle

Sixteen and the queen of high-school-land

I couldn't understand how she could be so pretty

And she's always better than my very best

And for the rest they wish they were that lucky

And I'd do what was cool just to make her laugh

And on her behalf I think she's close to perfect

And all the while with a smile she made it through

That had to be hard to do and you've got my respect

And I want you to know

You're the water in the desert

You're the island in the sea

You're the flower in the snow

That grows strong and free

You're the power of the moonlight knowing silently

And you're all the magic that's been missing in me

It's been missing in me

She pushed away everyday just a little bit more

No she wasn't like before when she was always laughing

And she was scared and she cared what people would think

So she started to sink out of the light she was in

But I want you to know

You're the water in the desert

You're the island in the sea

You're the flower in the snow

That grows strong and free

You're the power of the moonlight

Knowing silently

And you're all the magic that's been missing in me

You turned your life around

When everybody thought it was over

And you shined through the night

You made me realize

Even when it looks like it's over

It will be alright

If you're strong enough to fight

Strong enough to fight

You're the water in the desert

You're the island in the sea

You're the flower in the snow

That grows strong and free

You're the power of the moonlight

Knowing silently

And you're all the magic that's been missing in me

Yes you're all the magic that's been missing
