You turned it all around

by megan   Aug 30, 2007


I was self-conscious before i was 8 and that's wrong
so was the way i grew up and the things i was told
i felt worthless and ugly for so long

I didn't feel good enough for anything or anyone at all
i had been hurt by people i thought i could trust
and wouldn't let anyone in cause i was scared to fall

even when we were kids you said i was pretty like it was true
and i loved to be with you
when you left i didn't know what to do

You left and my world went down the drain
i couldn't get over your gorgeous smile
and i was back to feeling pain

I still felt ugly, being told that all the time
by my own family, by my own sisters
I'd put on a fake smile to show i was fine

When you came back you turned it all around
it was the best day of my life
when i first saw you i couldn't make a sound

I felt like i actually meant something to someone
i missed that feeling so much
and i was back to having fun

And now you say I'm beautiful, you look me in the eye
and say it like you mean it
like it's true and not a lie

Sometimes you get sad and think you're not enough
but you need to know you're more than i could ask for
and you can't give up when days get rough

Forever is how long I'll love you for
no matter what
i don't care if your really rich or super poor

No other man has ever made me feel the way you do
or said i was pretty
that's what i need, and i get it all from you

You make me feel so good
i haven't felt that in a long time
and i feel the way i probably should

I love you more than anything, with my whole heart
and I'll be here for you no matter what
just know I'd die if we were to ever part
