04SOPHIA'S
WORD
Sängerin Joana Henrique
I DON’T KNOW WHAT I SHOULD SAY
OR WHAT I’M SUPPOSED TO DO
I’LL JUST NEVER MEAN AS MUCH
AS LAUREN MEANS TO YOU
YOU DON’T HAVE TO JUSTIFY
THAT WON’T MAKE A CHANGE
BUT APART FROM ALL YOUR ALIBIS
ONE QUESTION REMAINS
COULD YOU TELL ME – WHY WOULD YOU NEED SOPHIA
IF THERE’S A LAUREN WHO IS BETTER
AS LONG AS LAUREN’S DOING FINE
MAMA TELL ME – WHY WOULD YOU NEED SOPHIA
I WILL NO LONGER WASTE MY TIME
IN TRYING TO CHANGE YOUR MIND
AND I DON’T DOUBT SHE’S BETTER THAN ME
IN EVERY SUBJECT AND IN SPORTS
BUT WHY DO WE GRADE CHARACTERS
FOR WHAT THEY’VE LEARNED INSTEAD OF FOR WHAT THEY’VE GOT
I’M AWARE OF BEING “SECOND-BEST”
I AM THE ONE ON THE SECOND PLACE
BUT BEFORE I’LL FINALLY GO MY WAY
THIS ONE THING REMAINS
MAMA TELL ME – WHY WOULD YOU NEED SOPHIA
IF THERE’S A LAUREN WHO IS BETTER
AS LONG AS LAUREN’S DOING FINE
MAMA TELL ME - WHY WOULD YOU NEED SOPHIA
I WON’T KEEP WASTING MY WHOLE LIFE
IN TRYING TO BE YOUR CHILD
SO I DECIDED TO RUN AWAY
I’LL SPREAD MY WINGS AND FLY
FACE THE TRUTH – IT’S OVER NOW
MAKE YOUR KISS GOODBYE.
I WON’T WAIT FOR BETTER DAYS
YOU WON’T HOLD ME DOWN
I WON’T STOP, I WON’T OBEY
BECAUSE NOW I’LL RUN AWAY
AND ALL THESE YEARS THAT I KEPT TRYING
TO MAKE YOU LOVE ME A LITTLE MORE
ALL I RECEIVED WAS YOUR DENYING
AND I WON’T TAKE THIS ANYMORE
