Little Me (Just Yesterday)
Britney Spears · Other Songs - Britney Spears
You were looking up to me
And you would ask me what I thought
But now I'm sitting here
All alone with my tears
Lookin' at my life
That I've bought
Where did I go? (yeah)
My eyes, they will show
Little me,
Please look at me
I couldn't see
You hurting inside
