0:00I had to prove that I could make it alone
0:04But that's not me
0:08I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now
0:12But that's not me
0:16I could try to be big in the eyes of the world
0:21What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl
0:33I'm a little bit scared
0:34Cause I haven't been home in a long time
0:41You needed my love
0:43And I know that I left at the wrong time
0:52My folks when I wrote them
0:54Told 'em what I was up to said that's not me
0:59I went through all kinds of changes
1:02Took a look at myself and said that's not me
1:08I miss my pad and the places I've known
1:12And every night as I lay there alone I will dream
1:25I once had a dream
1:26So I packed up and split for the city
1:33I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
1:41I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready
1:48I I I I once had a dream
1:53So I packed up and split for the city
2:00I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
2:08I once had a dream
2:10So I packed up and split for the city
2:17I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
I had to prove that I could make it alone But that's not me I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now But that's not me I could try to be big in the eyes of the world What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl I'm a little bit scared Cause I haven't been home in a long time You needed my love And I know that I left at the wrong time My folks when I wrote them Told 'em what I was up to said that's not me I went through all kinds of changes Took a look at myself and said that's not me I miss my pad and the places I've known And every night as I lay there alone I will dream I once had a dream So I packed up and split for the city I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready I I I I once had a dream So I packed up and split for the city I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty I once had a dream So I packed up and split for the city I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
