I was the one to call the shots Dream-eyed dreams, heart and soul Answered only to myself Never giving up control Until the one day that brought me to my knees And I would never be the same
Chorus: Once upon a time the story goes I laid it all down and let it go To lose it all To lose it all Took a step of faith and said goodbye And everything I had I left behind To find true life When all I longed for I found finally At the end of me
And now the gone is wasted days The selfish soul, the emptiness Love had dimly been replaced That old life is laid to rest And now the new me is stronger day by day I will never be the same
Chorus
Bridge: And like an answer to a prayer Jesus you were there Calling me to live to die to give to gain And I’ll never be the same
