|
I've stood with both feet in the ocean |
|
Underneath a starry sky |
|
I've sat up on my daddy's shoulders |
|
And watched the parade go by |
|
I've heard the sweet sound of a lover |
|
Softly whispering my name |
|
I've felt the heat, I've felt the hunger |
|
And I will never be the same |
|
Chorus: |
|
I've tasted kisses and I've tasted tears |
|
Watched love grow and watched it disappear |
|
I have searched for truth and chosen lies |
|
I've been selfish and I've sacrificed |
|
I've let go too soon, held on too hard |
|
Broken promises and broken hearts |
|
I have lived and learned and healed and hurt and laughed and cursed and prayed |
|
And I will never be the same |
|
I've given up the things I needed |
|
And what I thought made me whole |
|
And I've found beauty in my weakness |
|
I'm not afraid to let it show |
|
And I have screamed out loud to Jesus |
|
When I thought he couldn't hear my pain |
|
But then I heard the answer |
|
And I will never be the same |
|
Chorus: |
|
I've tasted kisses and I've tasted tears |
|
Watched love grow and watched it disappear |
|
I have trusted and I've been betrayed |
|
Fought my way back out of my mistakes |
|
I have lost my faith, been found by grace |
|
I've made tears run down my mother's face |
|
I have lived and learned and healed and hurt and laughed and cursed and prayed |
|
And I will never be the same |
|
Chorus: |
|
I have laid fresh flowers on a grave |
|
Seen the future in a baby's face |
|
I have lived and learned and healed and hurt and laughed and cursed and prayed |
|
And I will never be the same |
|
I will never be the same |
|
I will never be the same |
