I see your face before me

I have a life inside

That's all mine

I feel it growing strong

Inside of me now

As I lay here on my bed, I know

My days ahead won't be alone



Can't you see a change in my face

I'm a stranger to myself in so many ways

I have lived inside a storm before

But now I'm living for something more



And I've been a child

A tomboy tough and wild

Ready for a fight



But now I get to be

Somebody new for me

As I hold you



And if you heard my story

You wouldn't be ashamed of me at all

Forgive me if I dream out loud

But I love you like that man I loved

Seeing you would make him feel so proud



And I've been a child

A tomboy tough and wild

Ready for a fight



But now I get to be

Somebody new for me

As I hold you gently

And kiss your sleepy eyes
