I need time (time)


Love 
Joy (joy)
I need space
Know I need me

(Action!)

Say hello to the girl that I am!


You're gonna have to see through my perspective
I need to make mistakes just to learn who I am
And I don't wanna be so damn protected
There must be another way
Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
God, I need some answers

What am I to do with my life


(You will find out don't worry)
How Am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I tell 'em what I like


What I won't
What I don't
But every time I do I stand corrected
Things that I've been told
I can't believe what I hear about the world, I realise
Overprotected

There must be another way


Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
God I need some answers

What am I to do with my life


(You will find out don't worry)
How Am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I need… time (love)


I need… space
(This is it, this is it)

I don't need nobody


Telling me just what I wanna
What I what, what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny (i need)
I Say No, No
Ain't nobody tell me just what what what I wanna do, do
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me

(Action!)

(yeah)
What am I to do with my life
(You will find out don't worry)
How Am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel (feel)
But my life has been so overprotected

I don't need nobody


Telling me just what I wanna
What what-what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
I Say No, No
Ain't nobody tell me just what I wanna do, do
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me

What am I to do with my life


(You will find out don't worry)
How Am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just got to do it your way) (how)
I can't help the way I feel ( the way i feel)
But my life has been so overprotected
