Trisha Yearwood Lyrics
"Standing Out in a Crowd"

(Sarah Majors - Maia Sharp)

Mother said, ''Stand up straight
Don't let your classmates make
You feel like you don't belong
So not like the rest of them
Someday, the best of them
Will realize they were wrong.''
But in my world, different, an' then 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 whisperin' about?
You're thinkin' up ways to take up less space
I can't see the grace in it
Standin' out in a crowd. (Standing out.)

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 every day
With all these ways to be different
Then maybe that's how you fit in.

By standing out in the crowd
Where the spotlight finds you and singles you out
What are they whisperin' about?
You're thinkin' up ways to take up less space
Instead of embracing it
Standin' out in a crowd. (Standing out.)

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.

Standing out in a crowd, (Standing out.)
Where the spotlight finds you and singles you out
What are they whisperin' about?
You're thinkin' up ways to take up less space
There's no escapin' it
Standin' out in a crowd. (Standing out.)
Standin' out in a crowd. (Standing out.)

(Standin' out...)
