I was a fool afraid to the heart Waiting for my life to start Drifting along with the little I had I was safe secure and sad
You made me see so many possibilities You opened my eyes to this world
Now I can make it on my own And I owe it all to You You showed me just what I could do I'll carry on alone I know I can make it on my own 'Cause you gave the strength to me You showed me how much more I could be I'll carry on alone
Life's what you make it live it with pride I've wasted time just trying to hide But even with my head in the sand Still you made me understand
And you showed me so many possibilites You opened my eyes to this world
Now I can make it on my own And I owe it all to you You showed me just what I could do I'll carry on alone I know I can make it on my own 'Cause you gave the strength to me You showed me how much more I could be I'll carry on alone
Now I can make it on my own And I owe it all to you You showed me just what I could do I'll carry on alone
I really want to thank you baby I owe you more than I can say And I'm going to take all those chances this time
Now I can make it on my own And I owe it all to you You showed me just what I could do I'll carry on alone I know I can make it on my own 'Cause you gave the strength to me You showed me how much more I could be I'll carry on alone
