Eva Hillered/Dana Cooper
As a little girl she tried so hard to please them
Singing every note right on key
Trying to be strong there for everyone in need
Saying you can lean on me
I am your backup girl
Out to save the world
Undiscovered pearl
Your backup girl
She grew up and saw a stranger in the mirror
A young woman she would like to get to know
The pretty little dress didn´t fit her like before
She said I can see I am so much more
Than a backup girl
Part of this world
Not just a string of pearls
More than a backup
Wanna sing every line
not just the chorus
Stop tiptoeing behind
Wanna be the tallest tree in the forest
Wanna step out in the light
Let me shine
Let me shine
I am not backup girl
I am gonna change the world
Bright and shiny pearl
More than a backup girl
I am here to change the world
Let my flag unfurl
More than a backup girl
