I need time (time)
Love (love), joy (joy)
I need space (love)
I need me (action!)Say hello to the girl that I am
You're gonna have to see through my perspective
I need to make mistakes just to learn who I am
And I don't wanna be so damn protectedThere must be another way
'Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do?
God, I need some answers
What am I to do with my life?
(You will find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotectedI tell them what I like, what I want and what I don't
But every time I do, I stand corrected
Things that I've been told
I can't believe what I hear about the world
I realize I'm overprotectedThere must be another way
'Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do?
God, I need some answers
What am I to do with my life?
(You will find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotectedI need time (love)
I need space
(This is it, this is it)I don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna
What I, what-what, what I'm gonna (I need)
Do about my destiny
I say no-no, nobody's telling me just what I wanna do-do
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be
Someone else but me (action!)What am I to do with my life?
(You will find it out, don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right?
(You just gotta do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotectedI don't need nobody tellin' me just what I wanna
What I, what-what, what I'm gonna
Do about my destiny
I say no-no, nobody's telling me just what I wanna do-do
I'm so fed up with people tellin' me to be
