All of my life I have watched you Climbing mountains, chasing dreams All of my life you gave me everything But you don't have to give the world to me Just say you love me as I'm Say you want me as I am Say I'm someone in your eyes It's all I wanted to be Oh just let me go, I know One day if I'm allowed If I'm allowed One day I'll make you proud All of your life you've taken chances You broke the rules time after time All of your life you've gone your own way So give me this chance and I'll go mine Why cant you say you love me as I'm Say you want me as I am Say I'm someone in your eyes It's all I wanted to be Oh just let me go, I know One day if I'm allowed If I'm allowed One day I'll make you proud Ooh One day I'll make you proud Mmmmmmmm And trying to please you, now Is all I seem to do I'm holding my dreams down It's breaking me in two I've got to be me, now 'Cause there's already one of you I'm on my knees So help me, please Please don't shoot me down If though you can't see it now Some day I'll make you proud
