I'D Be Lyin'

I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't terrified, said I wasn't scared. I'd be lyin' if I said dreams don't come true,to heights I hadn't dared. I'd be lyin' if I said that I was perfect, my convictios aremy own. I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't proud of every seed I've sewn. I'd be lyin' if I said time doesnt heal all wounds, scars they never close, I'd be lyin' if I said I hadn"t a burned a bridge or two, still through ashes, once again I rose. I'd be lyin' if I said I wasnt ready to love again,that you arent worthy of my time. I'd be lyin' if i sid he didnt make my blue eyes shine. With my shoulders back, my chin held high, beside him in will stand, still tryin, I can't say I don't love him, cause then, I would be lyin'.
