Someone Else's Eyes

[Verse 1] This is my life and it's my right to live The way I want to live each day That's what I want to say And this is my song And for too long I sang someone else's melody It wasn't really me Somehow I took myself for granted In someone else's eyes [Chorus] I saw reflections of a girl I was who caught me by surprise Seeing a woman who's defined by you, I never realized I can't love you, I can't love me through someone else's eyes [Verse 2] You were the sun, I was the one who just Revolved around you day and night You were my only life but if I were free Baby, I'd take control of everything inside of me Find who I want to be I'd never take myself for granted In someone else's eyes [Chorus] [Verse 3] I got to show myself I can still exist without a man Got to finally take control, got to see myself as whole with you Though you're not the one to blame, I was lost inside your name And I'll never be the same till I find a way back home again In someone else's eyes [Chorus] [Bridge] Ooh, someone else's eyes, ooh, baby, baby, baby Till I find a way back home again Through someone else's eyes [Chorus] [Verse 4] Someone else's eyes, no baby, ooh Someone else's eyes, can't do it, I can't do it I, I love you, sweet baby, I want to be with you, baby Through someones else's eyes, ooh Someone else's eyes, oh, baby Oh yeah, someone else's eyes I want to be by your side God haven't you heard this lady's cry?
