I used to think that I wanted
To be everything you want for me
When I couldn't keep your promise
I broke your heart so I could break free
I used to think I really was
A miracle of no remorse
I wasted time on all the little things
Then shed a tear so I could grow some wings
I knew once, I knew once, I knew once
Bless to the child in me
That still needs mothering
Bless to the father who told me that
I could be something, I could be something, I could be something
Another night, another question
Did you really think I wouldn't fly
To a place where I could belong?
How could you think I wasn't worth a try?
And after all who cares what others think?
They flail around and find the missing link
I thought I know them but I don't know who they are
I could find them if I forced the charge
I knew them, I knew them, I knew them
Hmm
Bless to the child in me
That still needs mothering
Bless to the father who told me that
I could be something, I could be something, I could be something
Put your reign on me
Put your reign on me
Oh, the wildness that I keep
Still want you to need me
Want you to need me
Still want you to need me
