[Verse 1]
Looking in the mirror not likin' what I see
Wishin' I was surer 'bout insecurities
Tell me I will never be the fairest of 'em all
Always feel like I'm not quite good enough

[Chorus 1]
Who, who
Who's gonna love and hold me sacred
Who, who
Who's gonna wanna hold me close
Who's gonna wanna see me naked
Cherish me and give to me
What I need the most

[Verse 2]
I swear when he looks at me
He's likin' what he sees
He says he wants to kiss me
It's too much to believe
I shy away 'cause I'm afraid
I just might mess it up
Self-conscious and a bit afraid of love

[Chorus 2]
Who, who
Well who would've thought I'd be thought special
Who knew
I would find my place at last
Who, who
Who's now standin' at the dresser
Dancin', prancin' at my image in that
Same lookin' glass

[Chorus 3]
Who, who
Well I'm soarin' like an eagle
Who, who
Now that I have spread my wings
Who knew
I'd be feelin' proud and regal
Like a storybook princess, who knew

[Chorus 4]
Who, who
Whoever knows what's gonna happen
Who, who
Has made my dreams come true
Who, who
Well, it's someone up there clappin'
It's the very one I always knew, who knew

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
