someone once said to me
all you are is all you need
as long as you set out to be
all you can become

they said that tears are often cried
but I’d find strength from deep inside
and one day I’d be blossoming
under the sun

and oh, oh, oh, oh
and oh, oh, oh, oh

in a distant memory
I tug upon the apron strings
mama always watching over me
but now I find myself alone
cold and dark and far from home
remembering the promise to be
all I can become

and oh, oh, oh, oh
and oh, oh, oh, oh

gone from my mind
a voice that left me behind
softly it sang to me
but that was so long ago
that was so long ago

and oh, oh, oh, oh
and oh, oh, oh, oh
