I wanted to have a good day
But I had a bad day
I wanted to have a whole family
But I have half a family
I wanted to have the very best friends
But I have about one nest friend

There are thing I have
wanted
Things I have needed
Thing I have but go away

I wanted to have a fun life
But I don't
I wanted to stop being the good girl
But I didn't
I wanted to have a boyfriend
But I don't

There are things I have
wanted
Things I have needed
Things I have but go away

I wanted to go somewhere alone
But I never did
I wanted to runaway
But I couldn't
I realized I finally didn't
want any of this
All I wanted was to be happy
And I was when I realized
I have all the family all the friends a girl could need.
