My Time
Definitely coming of age...
Emotions speak the pain inside
Of dreams fulfilled and dreams denied
You say I can be whatever I want
Then hold me close so I can’t try
I know you love me and want what’s best
But fear of failure lives in your breast
Fear for me and fear for you
Knowing if I fail, you fail too
Just let me try, give me back my wings
You never know I might succeed
Give me a chance to learn and love
And fail and fall. To live my life
You’re my mother and mentor true friend to me
My keeper my jailer you hold the key
But soon I’ll have the chance to fly
So encourage me or lose me for now it’s my time
Of dreams fulfilled and dreams denied
You say I can be whatever I want
Then hold me close so I can’t try
I know you love me and want what’s best
But fear of failure lives in your breast
Fear for me and fear for you
Knowing if I fail, you fail too
Just let me try, give me back my wings
You never know I might succeed
Give me a chance to learn and love
And fail and fall. To live my life
You’re my mother and mentor true friend to me
My keeper my jailer you hold the key
But soon I’ll have the chance to fly
So encourage me or lose me for now it’s my time
