Just a Woman

It’s been a long time Since I’ve felt an angel’s touch It’s been a long while Since I’ve laughed this much I’ve been burdened by my past Afraid to let it go To forgive the sins I know I’ve made It took a long time to know That I am just a woman Who’s never had the chance To spread my wings and fly away To be happy when I dance To appreciate the sunshine That I have so much to give I’m stronger than I thought I was And I’m learning how to live Time had just been passing years have come and gone Never taking any credit For battles I had won Now I treasure every moment I’ve learned to take a bow Living well is ageless And time does allow To be just a woman Who’s not afraid to fall Who recognizes courage Who deserves to have it all I’ve discovered my own passions I’ve left the past behind I can climb any mountain Not afraid to find…that I am just a woman Who’s never had the chance To spread my wings and fly away To be happy when I dance I appreciate the sunshine I have so much to give I’m stronger than I thought I was I’m learning how to live.
