It seems like a lifetime
Since I felt like a prisoner of my dreams, yeah
It took such a long time
For me to realize just how to be
And to listen to me
Don't go thinking I'm not thankful,
'Cause me, I've got my hands full of good things, oh
And I hope I can give back
A little bit of what you've given me
So thank you for standing right by me (I will always love you)
So thank you for being behind me (You are just so amazing)
And watching me grow and letting others know
That you still believe in what I'll be
Ha.
Some people have said things in times
About me that weren't always true
Ooh yeah
But you've always been there
To give that extra love to pull me through
To do what I gotta do
Cause there'll always be those ups and downs
But you've always seemed to stick around and see
See me through to believe, yeah
And I hope I can give back
A little bit of what you've given me
You give me all that I need, yeah
So thank you for standing right by me (I thank you for everything)
So thank you for being behind me (Thank you, Christina)
And watching me grow and letting others know
That you still believe in what I'll be (Sing it, girl)
It took awhile 'til I could do what I wanted
And now I'm so happy that it started where we started
I'm thanking God that I could be in the position
To do my own thing now and make my own decisions
And so I'm thanking you for being true
And standing by me through and through
Since I felt like a prisoner of my dreams, yeah
It took such a long time
For me to realize just how to be
And to listen to me
Don't go thinking I'm not thankful,
'Cause me, I've got my hands full of good things, oh
And I hope I can give back
A little bit of what you've given me
So thank you for standing right by me (I will always love you)

I'm thanking God that I could be in the position

And so I'm thanking you for being true
And standing by me through and through
This is for you
Hmmm, yeah, ooh yeah, ohh
I thought I knew who you were
I see now you were a lesson to learn
And all I am to you now is a bridge that's been burned
Now I was the first to believe
I made you part of my musical dream
And your thanks to me, came without an apology, yeah
We wrote Loving Me 4 Me, don't Walk Away
Can't Hold Us Down, all part of our history
Don't forget Infatuation, I'm a Fighter
Feeling Underappreciated
Yeah, this song is for you to remind you
That I moved on, sang my songs,
I've got no regrets
Mmhmm, ohh
Hope it all was worth it, uh
Looks like I didn't need you
Still got the album out
Ha
Was it something I let slip
Does the whole world know
Isn't it obvious?
I'm the one who's in control
Now i'm acting like a fool
Do my feelings show
Is my face aglow
Isn't it obviuos?
That I don't know what i'm doing anymore
I'm feeling like a little girl
Caught up in emotions
I'm out of control
isn't it obvious?
Do you see my hands, they tremble
Wonder why I can't look you in the eyes
Don't know how long
i can keep this inside
Isn't it obvious?
That I don't know what i'm doing anymore
I'm feeling like a little girl
Caught up in emotions
I'm out of control
isn't it obvious?
Suddenly these emotions are in control of my heart
Can you see it in my eyes
Every glance, every smile must give me away
And I feel so much I can't hide
That I don't know what i'm doing anymore
I'm feeling like a little girl
Caught up in emotions
I'm out of control
isn't it obvious?
