I believe that children are our future Teach them well and let them lead the way Show them all the beauty they possess inside Give them a sense of pride to make it easier Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be Everybody's searching for a hero People need someone to look up to I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs A lonely place to be And so I learned to depend on me I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows If I fail, if I succeed At least I lived as I believe No matter what they take from me They can't take away my dignity Because the greatest love of all Is happening to me I found the greatest love of all Inside of me The greatest love of all Is easy to achieve Learning to love yourself It is the greatest love of all I believe that children are our future Teach them well and let them lead the way Show them all the beauty they possess inside Give them a sense of pride to make it easier Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows If I fail, if I succeed At least I lived as I believe No matter what they take from me They can't take away my dignity Because the greatest love of all Is happening to me I found the greatest love of all Inside of me The greatest love of all Is easy to achieve Learning to love yourself It is the greatest love of all And if by chance, that special place That you've been dreaming of Leads you to a lonely place Find your strength in love

If I changed my mind If I changed my faith Every time a stop light signaled Each time I made mistakes I don't think that I would be where I am today I live my life without regrets What you see is, what you see is What you see is what you get and I'm Unashamed of the life I lead Unashamed of the strength on my knees The choices I've made, of the love that I've saved Of things I've done, my belief in the one Unashamed of the words of my friends I know who they are make mistakes, make amends Follow my instincts, my star, on my sleeve I wear my heart Unashamed, unashamed Adding up my life, it totals all my dreams I'm counting all my blessings and the gifts I have received Still there's always someone, something to overcome Took all my life to understand that I am what I am, who I am Unashamed Unashamed of the life I lead Unashamed of the strength on my knees The choices I've made, of the love that I've saved Of things I've done, my belief in the one Unashamed of the words of my friends I know who they are make mistakes, make amends Follow my instincts, my star, on my sleeve I wear my heart Unashamed Do you wanna know how it goes? Do you wanna control how I feel? Do you wanna stay in my life? Then listen here and listen good You got to get it, got to get it, got to get it right Unashamed Unashamed of the life I lead Unashamed of the strength on my knees The choices I've made, of the love that I've saved Of things I've done, my belief in the one Unashamed of the words of my friends I know who they are make mistakes, make amends Follow my instincts, my star, on my sleeve I wear my heart Unashamed Unashamed of the life I lead Unashamed of the strength on my knees The choices I've made, of the love that I've saved Of things I've done, my belief in the one Unashamed of the words of my friends I know who they are make mistakes, make amends Follow my instincts, my star, on my sleeve I wear my heart Unashamed

Got me a postcard and a twenty dollar bill I told you I'd meet you in Memphis if you bring me those pills And I got high and I got dry for far too long And the gypsy train to Houston is gonna take me along They called me the wild card And they called me their fool I told them I'd bring 'em that money If they'd get me back to you And I got cash and I got robbed for all I own And the gypsy train to Houston is gonna take me back home I got clean and I got a steady job No longer was I running from the emblems of the law And I got clean and I got mean to the bone And the gypsy train to Houston won't leave me alone And the gypsy train to Houston won't leave me alone

Met a girl at the party last night, With gold in her eyes, And little alibies to fool me. Had venom on her lips, Painted finger tips, Used my chest pockets To hold her cigarettes, and number, And I wonder, If I'll see her again. She said, boy if you really wanna write a song, You better stop waiting to take me home, And let me talk to you. Whatever you wanna do. Baby, don't make me wait anymore, If that other girl cared, She'd be right at the door, to stop me, And if you love her, Then come a little closer, And let me change that for you. Met a girl at the party last night, With bad ideas, but real good pills To hold me. Baby blue eyes, Without the sunshine, She locked me in her room, And took her sweet time. I wonder, if I'm just another, Notch on the post. She said, boy if you really wanna write a song, You better stop waiting to take me home, And let me talk to you. Whatever you wanna do. Baby, don't make me wait anymore, If that other girl cared, She'd be right at the door, to stop me, And if you love her, Then come a little closer, And let me change that for you. Met a girl at the party last night, With vicious intentions, To find another victim to haunt me. Twisted up knives, The back of my spine, Taryn me to pieces, The reasons I write, I wonder, if I'm just another, Ghost you used to know... She said, boy if you really wanna write a song, You better stop waiting to take me home, And let me talk to you. Whatever you wanna do. Baby, don't make me wait anymore, If that other girl cared, She'd be right at the door, to stop me, And if you love her, Then come a little closer, And let me change that for you. Met a girl at the party last night.
