*My destiny*

(Verse 1)

I remember my carefree days playing,

when I was just a little girl.

I had tea sets and dolls.

I was living in a Barbie world.

I just knew that I was a princess.

I thought I would live in a castle someday.

I waited with baited breath-

for my knight to come sweep me away.

(Chorus)

I have never been sure what the future holds for me.

Still, I am convinced I will find my destiny.

I learn more with each passing day-

Yet, I doubt I will ever know the way.

With each new mystery that unfolds-

I discover a secret I didn't know.

It has already been said

The future is laid out for me.

Someday, somewhere lays my destiny.

(Verse 2)

The years of my youth seemed to pass by so quick.

I broke every rule- and learned every trick.

I made up my mind

and then changed my plans.

I made decisions-

that I still don't understand.

As time progressed,

I only became confused more.

Often I find myself wondering...

what this life is for.

(Chorus)

I have never been sure what the future holds for me.

Still, I am convinced I will find my destiny.

I learn more with each passing day-

Yet, I doubt I will ever know the way.

With each new mystery that unfolds-

I discover a secret I didn't know.

It has already been said

The future is laid out for me.

Someday, somewhere lays my destiny.

(Verse 3)

Many days I worry and most nights I lay awake.

I think back to every mistake.

Just when life is going good,

Things turn to dust.

I get so frustrated

I scream and I cuss.

It hasn't killed me but I don't feel much stronger

I can't help but wonder if it will be any longer

(Chorus)

I have never been sure what the future holds for me.

Still, I am convinced I will find my destiny.

I learn more with each passing day-

Yet, I doubt I will ever know the way.

With each new mystery that unfolds-

I discover a secret I didn't know.

It has already been said

The future is laid out for me.

Someday, somewhere lays my destiny.
