You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You are always there
And forever fair
A shoulder to cry on
All life long
Best days are spent with you
And the family too
Ever loving, never fading
With a smile, simply loving


You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

Even when we argue
I always know what you do
You do because you love me
This I can see
I will never go far
Because of all you are
Everything leads back here
With you there’s no fear
Simply because


You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You and I together
Side by side forever
Showing me the way
Each and every day
We are stronger
Now we’ve travelled further
Ever loving, ever protecting
Ever caring, ever hoping
That’s you because

You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You are the reason
That I’m alive
You brought me up
To  know what’s right
You loved me
No matter what


You are my mother
You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

 
The way you treat me
The way you love me
The way you walk
Some things I don’t understand
You are one of them
You are one of them

As I walk through life
There are many things
I just don’t understand
No matter how hard I try
I just can’t see how you
Can love me, yet leave me
The way you walk towards me
That confident swagger
I know what is going to happen
Some things I don’t understand

The way to love
The way to feel
The way to live
Some things I don’t understand
You are one of them
You are one of them

You pick me up, whirl me round
As you walk through the door
You kiss me and hold
I know you love me today
You touch me so much
I can barely hold in my
Love for you
You are my soul
Some things I don’t understand

The way to love
The way to feel
The way to live
Some things I don’t understand
You are one of them
You are one of them

You love me hard
And deep, you touch
Me where it hurts
Then you leave me
Lying there loving yet
Hating you for making
Me feel so worthless
You are confusing me
Some things I don’t understand

The way to love
The way to feel
The way to live
 Some things I don’t understand
You are one of them
You are one of them

You hold me close
Kiss me deep
Never leave me
Love me always
I feel special now
You make me whole
I love you so much
I’m never leaving you
You are my heart
Some things I don’t understand

The way to love
The way to feel
The way to live
Some things I don’t understand
You are one of them
You are one of them

The way to love
The way to feel
The way to live
Some things I don’t understand
You are one of them
You are one of them
 
I wanna fly
Will you let me?
I wanna do what I
Feel I have to
Will you let me?
I wanna be me
Will you let me?
Please?

Can’t you see
I am not the person
You thought I was
I am me, my own
Person, you can’t
Control me, I am
Not your baby girl
Anymore, I have
Changed, please,
Let me go

I wanna fly
Will you let me?
I wanna do what I
Feel I have to
Will you let me?
I wanna be me
Will you let me?
Please?

I can’t be bound by
These chains anymore
I need to feel
Alive, feel something
Real, let me go and
Don’t worry about
Me, I can look after
Myself now, I can
Survive without
You looking over my shoulder

I wanna fly
Will you let me?
I wanna do what I
Feel I have to
Will you let me?
I wanna be me
Will you let me?
Please?

I have done things
You can’t even imagine
I know more about life than
You think, so please let me live
I know you worry
But there is no need
I can take care of me
Now it’s time to let me go
It’s time for me to
Find out who I am

I wanna fly
Will you let me?
I wanna do what I
Feel I have to
Will you let me?
I wanna be me
Will you let me?
Please?

I wanna fly
Will you let me?
I wanna do what I
Feel I have to
Will you let me?
I wanna be me
Will you let me?
Please?
 
I need to ask you something,
It’s not to buy me a diamond ring
But something far more important to me
Because there is something I want you to see,
It’s about what I feel for you
I feel something so pure and true
I don’t know how to put it into words
So please, can you, from here onwards
Bare with me as I tell my story,
I’ll try to tell this quickly
But I can’t and won’t promise anything
Let’s start with the day we met, laughing
By the beach, swimming in the sea
And you called me baby

So here we are and
I need to ask this of you
It means a lot to me, because since I
Met you this life has never been the same
For me, and so I need to ask
Please, never let me go
If you did I think I would die
You are my world now, please
Never let me go

The next day we talked till midnight
And made love until we could see daylight
I never realized I would come to love you,
Love you just as much as I now do
Standing here in your doorway
I see that I have to find someway
To show you what I feel inside
I sit down at your bedside
Look into your eyes and
Tell you how much your love means
Love I have never felt before, not even in my teens
Our love is one of a kind, the very best
I am totally obsessed

So here we are and
I need to ask this of you
It means a lot to me, because since I
Met you this life has never been the same
For me, and so I need to ask
Please, never let me go
If you did I think I would die
You are my world now, please
Never let me go

I haven’t known you all that long
But I know I am not wrong
In what I feel for you
So without any adieu
Let’s start our life, together
Say our vows at the altar,
And make love till the morning light
Once more, dance in the moonlight
Because I love you more the anyone
Don’t tell me this is so sudden
I know but please say yes
And call me your princess
I know I’m not meant to do this
But I couldn’t live without your kiss

So here we are and
I need to ask this of you
It means a lot to me, because since I
Met you this life has never been the same
For me, and so I need to ask
Please, never let me go
If you did I think I would die
You are my world now, please
Never let me go

Your touch, your love, I need all of you
I just wish you knew
What I felt the day I saw you standing
There, my dreams came true, loving
You is all I want to do
What I’m saying is true
You are my only love darling
We have an amazing, sparkling
Love like no other in this life
So, one day please make me your wife
It’s doesn’t have to be soon
You don’t have to give me the moon
I just need your promise
And your everlasting kindness

So here we are and
I need to ask this of you
It means a lot to me, because since I
Met you this life has never been the same
For me, and so I need to ask
Please, never let me go
If you did I think I would die
You are my world now, please
Never let me go
