Nobody remembers the quiet girl
Who weaves her way through the crowd with her head down
Nobody remembers the quiet girl
Who knows all the answers but never raises her hand
Nobody remembers the quiet girl
Who trembles at the thought of presentations and public speaking
Nobody remembers the quiet girl
Who's head is so full and mouth so empty
But she remembers the quiet girl
She found her
And adopted her
She was there
The first time she lifted her head
The first time she raised her hand
The first time she volunteered
And the first time she shared an idea
Thank you for adopting me
And while not changing me,
Making me more confident
Thank you
