I Was
I was the boy with shoes too tight, and ankles caught between the tides
I was the girl who wore a dress to Sunday school and that was it
I had a handkerchief that went around my neck
It wiped my tears, sweat, my blood, my innocence, throughout the years
And now, I'm not afraid
I've found a body, soul, and mind that I can keep
And now, I'm not afraid
I've learned to love it and to keep it all the same
I was a wave, a cloud, a cliff, a slow parade
Too short to speak
A lover with a heart of hide and seek
And now, I know it's tough to be an elephant tied to a wing
And now, I'm not afraid
I found a love, and they love me
And now, I'm not afraid
I found a love that's here to stay
I was the girl who wore a dress to Sunday school and that was it
I had a handkerchief that went around my neck
It wiped my tears, sweat, my blood, my innocence, throughout the years
And now, I'm not afraid
I've found a body, soul, and mind that I can keep
And now, I'm not afraid
I've learned to love it and to keep it all the same
I was a wave, a cloud, a cliff, a slow parade
Too short to speak
A lover with a heart of hide and seek
And now, I know it's tough to be an elephant tied to a wing
And now, I'm not afraid
I found a love, and they love me
And now, I'm not afraid
I found a love that's here to stay
