A Gift for Melody Anne

I wanna get back
 I wanna get square
 I wanna get back on the hopes and dreams that I had
 That the good lord above us can spare
 Like that actor said
 I don't wanna lose heart
 I don't wanna get beat beat down by the big big world
 I'll quit before I even start.
 Lord, I just want my life to be true (I just want my life to be true)
 And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true)
 I just want my words to be true (I just want my words)
 I want my soul to feel brand new
 I wanna hold hands
 Yeah, and I wanna make love
 And I wanna keep running all day, and all night
 Even when my mind tell my body "that's enough"
 And I wanna stand up
 Yeah, and I wanna stand tall
 If I ever have a son, if I ever have a daughter
 I don't wanna tell them that I didn't give my all
 And I just wan my life to be true (I just want my life to be true)
 And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true)
 I just want my words to be true (I just want my words)
 I want my soul to feel brand, brand new
 Like a fresh coat of paint
 We could make it anything but blue
 Anything but blue
 Now, when your dreams start saying
 "I can't come true, you'd be better off without me"
 Don't let them go
 Don't let them go
 I don't wanna go broke
 Not from one bad deal
 I don't wanna be up all night crying in my hands for a girl
 That isn't even real
 Lord, I just want my life to be true (I just want my life to be true)
 And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true)
 And I just want my words to be true (I just want my words to be true)
 And I just want my song to be true (Just want my song to be true)
 And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true)
 And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true)
 And I just want my words to be true (I just want my words to be true)
 And I just want my heart you be true (just want my heart to be true)
 And I just want my life to be true (I just want my life to be true)
 And I just want my song to be true (Just want my song to be true)
 And I just want my life to be true (I just want my life to be true)
 I want my soul to feel brand new
 I want my soul to feel brand new
