I'VE NE VER TALKED BACK

I'VE NE VER SLEPT LATE

I'VE NE VER SAT DOWN

WHEN TOLD TO STAND STRAIGHT

I'VE NE VER LET GO AND

GONE WITH THE FLOW

I'VE NE VER ASKED QUES TIONS

OR TA KEN A DARE

I'VE NE VER WORN CLOTHES

THAT MIGHT MAKE PEO PLE STARE

I'VE NE VER RE BELLED

OR STOOD UP AND YELLED

AND ALL OF

THE FEE LINGS UN SPO KEN

I'VE NE VER GONE SUR FING

OR RAN WITH A CROWD

OR DANCED ON A TA BLE

OR LAUGHED MUCH TOO LOUD

I'VE NE VER QUITE DARED

TO LEAVE MY SELF BARED

I'VE JUST BEEN TOO

SCARED I MIGHT FALL

I'VE NE VER SEEN PA RIS

SWUM NA KED BEEN KISSED

I'VE NE VER QUITE RE A LISED JUST

HOW MUCH I'VE MISSED

AND WHAT DID I GET

FOR HED GING EACH BET

AND ALL OF THE

WI SHES UN ASKED FOR

AND NOW

NOW THAT YOU'VE GI VEN ME

WELL HOW HOW CAN I GO

ON I GNO RING THE WASTE OF IT

AF TER ALL OF THE YEARS

THAT I'VE CLUNG TO MY FEARS

I WANT TO BE BRAVE

I WANT TO BE STRONG

I WANT TO BE LIEVE

I'M WHERE I BE LONG

TO STAND UP AND SAY

I'M SEIZ ING THE DAY

AND I MAY NOT SURF

I MAY NOT SEE FRANCE

BUT I WANT TO KNOW

I STILL HAVE THE CHANCE

AND MAY BE I'LL MAKE

A PAIN FUL MIS TAKE

IT'S MINE THOUGH TO

TAKE OR RE FUSE

THEY'RE BEA CO NING BRIGHT

SCA RY AND NEW

BUT I'M STAN DING TALL

AND I'M WAL KING THROUGH

WHAT'S GONE MAY BE GONE

BUT I WON'T GO ON
