At twenty years of age
I'm still looking for a dream
A war is already waged for my destiny
You've already won the battle
And you've got great plans for me
Though I can't always see
Cause I got a couple dents in my fender
Got a couple rips in my jeans
Try to fit the pieces together
But perfection is my enemy
And on my own I'm so clumsy
But on your shoulders
I can see I'm free to be me
When I was just a girl
I thought I had it figured out
See my life would turn out right
And I'll make it here somehow
But things don't always come that easy
And sometimes I would doubt
Oh
Cause I got a couple dents in my fender
Got a couple rips in my jeans
Try to fit the pieces together
But perfection is my enemy
And on my own I'm so clumsy
Head on your shoulders
I can see I'm free to be me
You're free to be you
Sometimes I believe that I can do anything it
Other times I think I've got nothing good to bring you
Look at my heart you tell me that I've got all you seek
Oh
And it's easy to believe
Even though oh I got a couple dents in my fender
Got a couple rips in my jeans
Try to fit the pieces together
But perfection is my enemy
On my own I'm so clumsy
But on your shoulders
I can see
I got a couple dents in my fender
Got a couple rips in my jeans
Try to fit the pieces together
But perfection is my enemy
And on my own I'm so clumsy
But on your shoulders I can see
I'm free to be me
You're free to be you
