Think back to when you were a child,
What did you want to grow up to be?
Look around, look at yourself now,
Is that who you thought you would see?
Whoever you are, look at who that girl is now
I'd wager today that she would want to say,
"I'm comfortable in my own skin,
I'm beautiful, beginning within,
And that's what you call
A true sexy woman"
All the things, all the twists & the turns,
All the mountains that you've had to climb,
They've all brought you here,
To this fork in the road,
Where you get to choose left or right
Wherever you are, even if you once were lost,
Follow the signs to the Way,
To the place where you can say,
"I'm comfortable in my own skin,
I'm beautiful, beginning within,
And that's what you call
A true sexy woman"
I wait for the day that we can declare,
"I'm comfortable in my own skin,
I'm beautiful, beginning within,
And that's what you call
A true sexy woman"
