'I Can Do' or another title that I haven't come up with....
What if maybe you were wrong?
And what if maybe I was right?
What if your laughter was for naught?
That and all my tears at night,
What if I told you every word,
I’d ever said was wholly true?
I’d be doing it again but,
It would mean nothing to you,
I’m not just that little girl,
Who gazed wide-eyed at the sky,
I can do,
What you never thought was possible,
For me to do,
To you it’s unimaginable,
That I, that’s me,
Could go so far,
I’m going to show you what I’ve got,
Going to reach the stars,
You say you taught me all I know,
But it was all you knew, not me,
I’ve broken away from you and hell!
There’s so much more to see,
I’m not just that girl you knew,
Who hung onto your every word,
I can do,
What you never thought was possible,
For me to do,
To you it’s unimaginable,
That I, that’s me,
Could go so far,
I’m going to show you what I’ve got,
Going to reach the stars,
When I said I was leaving,
And you just shook your head
Smiled like I was joking,
And would run to you instead,
I wanted to slap that stupid smirk,
Right off your goddamn face,
You never thought I was good enough,
But now I’ve won the race,
I won’t bow down to you,
'Cause I'm not like all the rest,
I’m not that girl you thought,
Would worship you like you expect,
I can do,
What you never thought was possible,
For me to do,
To you it’s unimaginable,
That I, that’s me,
Could go so far,
I’m going to show you what I’ve got,
Going to reach the stars,
And when you’re old and grey,
You’ll regret the one that got away
Unsure about middle section from "When I said..." to "...like you expect" :/
"If you were me, then I'd be you, and if I were you, I'd hide somewhere faraway..."
