VERSE 1
I took the road less travelled
Didn’t do what I was told
Spun my wheels, wasted time
Was left out in the cold
For I know now I have everything
I think I’ll stay for a while
So I took a breath, unpacked my bags,
I looked around and smiled
CHORUS
It was the first time, that I realized that I was happy
It was the first time I didn’t rue about the past
And for the first time, I didn’t second guess
Or wonder what would be
It was the first time I allowed myself to be free
VERSE 2
I have angels looking out for me
What a wild card I’ve been thrown
I’m completely satisfied
I’ve made it on my own
If you’d told me years ago
I might not have believed
I’ve jumped the highest hurdles
Look what I’ve achieved
CHORUS
It was the first time, that I realized that I was happy
It was the first time I didn’t rue about the past
And for the first time, I didn’t second guess
Or wonder what would be
It was the first time I allowed myself to be free
BRIDGE
No more worries no more cares
No more heavy heart to bear
If I seek you’re always there
Guiding me through the night
No more sadness no more tears
Erase the pain of all those years
With his love I’ll never fear
I am happy
CHORUS
It was the first time, that I realized that I was happy
It was the first time I didn’t rue about the past
And for the first time, I didn’t second guess
Or wonder what would be
It was the first time I allowed myself to be free
It was the first time I allowed myself to be free
