I used to know a girl who had a dream

Her head full of ambition her heart filled with pain

Walking the same walk seeing the same faces

Wishing she could trade places

Maybe I could fly away she'd say

Even though time's moved on

I still feel the same

And I wanna be happy

And I wanna find my way

And I wanna run free

And I wanna fly away

Every good thing comes at a price

Sometimes you just gotta melt the ice

It's not a question of when just how

After all this time I've found

That I wanna be happy

And I wanna find my way

And I wanna run free

And I wanna fly away

I wanna be happy

And I wanna find my way

And I wanna run free

And I wanna fly away

It may take time to find my feet

You'll get there sometime they say to me

But I wanna be happy

And I wanna find my way

And I wanna run free

And I wanna fly away

I'm gonna be happy

And I wanna find my way

And I I'm gonna run free

And I I'm gonna fly away

I'm gonna be happy

And I wanna find my way

And I I'm gonna run free

And I I'm gonna fly away
