When I was younger, yesterday.
Things were simple, things were safe.
I never dreamed that I could see a better life for you and me.
Everyone told me to stay.

I held my breath, I made the leap.
Opened a door I'd never seen.
I took a chance, I made it through. Now everything [bad word] [bad word] 
And this is what it's like to be...

Out of my shell.
Just like a pearl. Luminous, rare.
Light up the world.

Right in the swell.
Still the same girl.
Making things better, better, better...
Light up the world.

Changing colors, making waves.
Something new in every day.
Wide awake, I live the dream.
Beneath the stars, under the sea.
And now the current carries me...

Out of my shell.
Just like a pearl. Luminous, rare.
Light up the world.

Right in the swell.
Still the same girl.
Making things better, better, better...
Light up the world.

You know make it your [bad word] home.

Light up the world.
Into the glow.
When I was younger, yesterday.

Out of my shell. (Out of my shell)
Just like a pearl. (Just like a pearl)
Luminous, rare. (Luminous, rare)
Light up the world. (Light up the world)

Right in the swell. (Right in the swell)
Still the same girl. (Still the same girl)
Making things better, better, better....
Light up the world. (Out of my shell)

Just like a pearl.
Right in the swell. (Light up the world)

Right in the swell. (Light up the world)
Still the same girl. (Light up the world)
Making things better, better, better....
Light up the world.
