  • MMMMMMMMMM

    Ever since I was a baby girl I had a dream
    Cinderella theme
    Crazy as it seems
    Always knew that deep inside that there would come that day
    But I would have to wait
    Make so many mistakes
    I couldn't comprehend
    As I watched it unfold
    This classic story told I left it in the cold
    Walking through an open door that led me back to you
    Each one unlocking more of the truth

    I finally stopped tripping on my youth
    I finally got lost inside of you
    I finally know that I needed to grow
    And finally my mate has met my soul

    [Chorus:]
    Finally
    Now my destiny can begin
    Though it will have a different set
    Something strange and new is happening
    Finally
    Now my life doesn't seem so bad
    It's the best that I've ever had
    Give my love to him finally

    MMMMMMMM

    I remember the beginning you already knew
    I acted like a fool
    Just trying to be cool
    Fronting like it didn't matter
    I just ran away
    And on another phase
    Was lost in my own space
    Found what its like to hurt selfishly
    Scared to give of me
    Afraid to just believe
    I was in a jealous, insecure, pathetic place
    Stumbled through the mess that I have made

    Finally got out of my own way
    I've Finally started living for today
    I finally know that I needed to grow
    And finally my mate has met my soul

    [Chorus]

    MMMMMMMM

    Finally, finally

    Finally
    Now my destiny can begin
    Though it will have a different set
    Something beautiful is happening, happening
    Finally
    Now my life doesn't seem so bad
    It's the best that I've ever had
    Give my love to him finally
