Rachel's Song [I'm the Only One]
© 2016 Rachel Lynn Sebastian

I was fading out
Tired and homeward bound
But I hadn't finished writing my song
I wanted to give up
Leave on the quickest route
But I didn't want my story
To be told by someone else
I had to believe
There's space for me

I coulda been wrong
I coulda been gone
But my heart told me "keep on"
I cried every day
I started to break
But my spirit said to wait
Cuz I'm the only one
Who can write my song

Pandora's box exposed
And all of my fears expounded
Was a debilitating, painful time to write
I never thought that I'd grow old
I wanted to stay a child
But now I listen back
And i know the misery was worthwhile
And I believe
There's space for me

I coulda been wrong
I coulda been gone
But my heart told me keep on
I cried every day
I started to break
But my spirit said to wait
Cuz I'm the only one

If I wanted to be right I had to face
That I could be wrong
To live what I believed there
Was a chance I'd walk alone
My world was getting smaller
I wished that it was over
But I came for just one reason
To live what I believe

I coulda been wrong
I coulda been gone
But my heart told me keep on
I cried every day
I started to break
But my spirit said to wait
Cuz I'm the only one
Who can write my song
