you've got to give me room

they say each day brings something new

well i guess that couldn't be more true

i guess

i'm speaking on the changes

that i been going through

this morning as i brushed my hair

this strange new feeling

i can't compare

suddenly

i become aware

you got to give me room

i know how deep our love has been

since we were very young

and now

the walls are closing in

and those yesteryears are gone

i know

that it been hard on you

to understand my point of view

how can i make it clear to you

you got to give me room

i confess

i can't say that i don't love you

but this love i have for you

grows weak

not strong

if it was up to me

our love would fortunately

be on the verge of flying home

you know how deep love is tingly

i am more that what you think i were

i am a woman going through a phase

i got to live life

before these precious years are through

there are some goals i must

pursue

how can i make it clear to you

you got to give me room

you got to give me room.
