Borrowed Words.

Mar 14, 2010

I've been using a lot of borrowed words on my blog lately because I don't know how to use my own. I'm working on it, but for now borrowed words are going to have to do. On my mind for today...

I'm not a princess,
This ain't a fairytale,
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet,
Lead her up the stairwell,
This ain't Hollywood,
This is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down,
Now it's too late for you and your white horse,
To come around

Dream Big.

When you cry be sure to dry your eyes
'Cause better days are sure to come
And when you smile be sure to smile wide
Don't let them know that they have won
And when you walk, walk with pride
Don't show the hurt inside
Because the pain will soon be gone

And when you dream, dream big
As big as the ocean blue
'Cause when you dream it might come true
When you dream, dream big

When you laugh be sure to laugh out loud
'Cause it will carry all your cares away
And when you see, see the beauty all around and in yourself
And it will help you feel okay
And when you pray, pray for strength
To help you carry on
When the troubles come your way

And when you dream, dream big
As big as the ocean blue
'Cause when you dream it might come true
When you dream, dream big

When you laugh be sure to laugh out loud
'Cause it will carry all your cares away
And when you see, see the beauty all around and in yourself
And it'll help you feel okay
And when you pray, pray for strength
To help you carry on
When the troubles come your way

And when you dream, dream big
As big as the ocean blue
'Cause when you dream it might come true
When you dream, dream big

Halo.

I never promised you a ray of light,
I never promised there'd be sunshine everyday
I gave you everything I have
The good, the bad

Why do you put me on a pedestal?
I'm so up high that I can't see the ground below
So help me down, you've got it wrong
I don't belong here

One thing is clear
I wear a halo
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here
You wouldn't say so
You wouldn't say so if you were me
And I just wanna love you
I just wanna love you

I always said that I would make mistakes
I'm only human and that's my saving grace
I'll fall as hard as I try
So don't be blinded
See me as I really am
I have flaws and sometimes I even sin
So pull me from that pedestal
I don't belong there

One thing is clear
I wear a halo
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here
You wouldn't say so
You wouldn't say so if you were me
And I just wanna love you
I just wanna love you

Why you think that you know me
But in your eyes
I am something above you
It's only in your mind
Only in your mind
I wear a halo

One thing is clear
I wear a halo
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here
You wouldn't say so
You wouldn't say so if you were me
And I just wanna love you
I just wanna love you

Even Angels.

Since you've been gone I learned how to move on
How to be myself, I don't need nobody else
I'm doing so good I forgot that I could
Live like this

First step, take a deep breath
You don't need a reason why
You can take time
You can walk, run, dive
Close call, you think you might fall
But all you gotta do is try

Even angels, even angels
Learn to fly
