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

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 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 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

I once had a dream

So i packed up and split for the city
