I want to get back I want to get square I want to get back on the hopes and dreams that I have that the good Lord above us can spare I just want my life to true just want my heart to be true just want my words to be true want my soul to feel brand new I just want my words to be true I want my soul to feel brand brand new like a fresh coat of paint, we can make it anything but blue anything but blue Like that actor said I don't wanna lose heart I don't wanna get beat beat down By the big big world Or quit Before I even start Lord, I just want me life to be true Yeah, and I just want me heart to be true Yeah, and I just want my words to be true 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 tells 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 ‘em that I didn't give my all And, I just want me life to be true Yeah, and I just want me heart to be true Yeah, and I just want my words to be true I want my soul to feel brand brand new Like a fresh coat of paint We can 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 ‘em go Don't let ‘em 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 me life to be true Yeah, and I just want me heart to be true And, I just want my words to be true Yeah, and I just want my song to be true Yeah, and I just want my heart to be true Yeah, and I just want my life to be true Yeah, and I just want my words to be true And, I just want my heart to be true Yeah, and I just want my life to be true And, I just want my song to be true And, I just want my life to be true I want my soul to feel brand new I want my soul to feel brand new
