Lyrics[]
I can say the words I feel inside so deep
'cuz when the clouds come out I feel so incomplete
I know the sun shines down on me
I see it now the rain won't care to leave
I just wanna live my life
The way it's meant to be
I don't wanna leave
But it's my destiny
I will wrap my arms around the world
you'll see
But I'm not a child
'Cuz I'm standing taller this time
Taking step by step
Do my best is right
But I will never say goodbye
For so long now I've been dreaming in the dark
I was too scared to feel the things held in my heart
Don't you know this is meant to be
I let it out
cuz it's getting hard to breathe
I just wanna live my life
The way it's meant to be
I don't wanna leave
But it's my destiny
I will wrap my arms around the world
you'll see
But I'm not a child
'Cuz I'm standing taller this time
Taking step by step
Do my best is right
I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna leave
But it's my destiny
I'll never say goodbye
I don't wanna leave
But I'm standing taller this time
Taking step by step
Do my best is right
But I will never say goodbye
