Just Wanna Be
When I was a baby
I wanted to be a tot
When I was a toddler
I saw what I had not.
When I was a big kid
I wanted to be a teen
But then I just wanted to be grown up
Do you see now what I mean?
I always wanted to be me
But an older, wiser version
And when I'd played around with love
I wished I was still a virgin.
When I was a woman
I wanted yet to be a girl
But the girl I'd been wanting so to be
A woman in this world.
I never wanted to be old
But live young and wild and free
I wanted life on my own terms
But a younger, wiser me.
I can't be sure just what I want
In living day to day
But it's so true, I'm telling you
I've always been this way.
I want what I cannot obtain
I loathe the things I own
I need to have what I cannot have
And I want my old things gone.
Oh, I've worked hard for what I've got
Of that, make no mistake
And I have more than my fair share
And what I've got is great.
But here I find myself back there
At indecision's door
I've got too much stuff on my plate
But I think I still need more.
Sure, I collect my favorite things
I have my expensive tastes
I like the luxuries of life
But I let them go to waste.
........sigh......
What should I do, I ask of you?
What would you say to me?
For your opinion is all I want
And your happiness to see.
You see, I am a mixed up girl
I have been all my days
I've gathered things I had to have
And then just walked away.
But there's one thing I must tell you
And it's certain, not a maybe
I said all that to just say this...
I just wanna be your baby.
