I tried to be just what you wanted
But I was always wishing on the moon
Things were always going wrong
And, oh, it took so long
And you just left me way too soon
If you could only see me now
Now I've turned my life around completely
If I could bring you back somehow
I know that I could make you proud to love me
Oh, I think you'd be surprised
I’d be something in your eyes
If you could only see me now
Some crazy dream was always waiting
Down some road I had to follow to the end
I meant to come back home, but time kept rolling on
I’d love to have that chance again
If you could only see me now
Now I've turned my life around completely
If I could bring you back somehow
I know that I could make you proud to love me
I think you'd be surprised
I’d be something in your eyes
If you could only see me now
I think you'd be surprised
I’d be something in your eyes
If you could only see me now
