this is my now

there was a time i packed my dreams away

living in a shell

hiding from myself

there was a time when i was so afraid

i thought i'd reached the end

baby that was then

but i am made of more than my yesterdays

this is my now

and i am breathing in the moment

as i look around

i can't believe the love i see

my fears behind me

gone are the shadows and doubts

that was then

this is my now. had to decide was i gonna play it safe

or look somewhere deep inside

and try to turn the tide

find the strength to take that step of faith

and i have the courage like never before

yeah

i've settled for less but ready for more

ready for more

this is my now
