The Lyrics
Sun comes up on this new morning
Shifting shadows, a songbird sings
And if these words could have kept wewe happy

I'd do anything

And if wewe feel alone, I'll be your shoulder
With a tender touch, wewe know me so well
Somebody...

If wewe call out loud
Will it get inside
Through the moyo of your surrender
To your alibis
And wewe can say the words
Like wewe understand
But, the power's in believing
So give yourself a chance

'Cause wewe can
Climb the highest mountain
Swim the deepest sea, hee
All wewe need is the will to want it
And uhh, little self-esteem

So keep the faith
Don't let nobody turn wewe 'round
You gotta know when
It's good to go
To get your dreams
Up off the ground
Keep the faith, baby, yea
Because it's just
A matter of time
Before your confidence
Will win out
Believe in yourself
No matter what it's gon' take
You can be a winner
But you...

Aaow!-Hoo hoo!

I don't care what wewe talkin' 'bout baby
I don't care what wewe say
Don't wewe come walkin' beggin' back mama
I don't care anyway
Time after time I gave wewe all of my money
No excuses to make
Ain't no mountain that I can't climb baby
All is going my way

('Cause there's a time when you're right)
(And wewe know wewe must fight)
Who's laughing baby, don't wewe know
(And there's the choice that we make)
(And this choice wewe will take)
Who's laughin' baby

So just leave me alone girl- leave me alone
(Leave me alone)
(Leave me alone)
Leave me alone
(Leave me alone)
(Leave me alone)
Leave me alone)
Leave me alone-stop...
