I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman

Well after promising for ages, eventually I made it out to karaoke yet again. Time to seriously throw name (so badly that you just don't bother to go back to find it again). Although, while I'm certainly not good, I know that there are many that were far worse.

Anyhow as the evening progressed, the usual suspects all arrived and a fairly good time was had by all... the rest of us just made it awesome. For reasons that'll never make sense (trust me on this one) I always end up doing a Britney number of some sort. So from Metallica to Lady Gaga, Black Sabbath to Britney, I ended up doing "I'm not a girl, not yet a woman" to a very "accommodating" audience. I think most folk were surprised that anyone who looks like they belong in an 90's metal band might even try to pull that one off.

But hey... life's too short to not do silly things!

I used to think
I had the answers to everything,
But now I know
Life doesn't always go my way, yeah...
Feels like I'm caught in the middle
That's when I realize...

I'm not a girl,
Not yet a woman.
All I need is time,
A moment that is mine,
While I'm in between.

I'm not a girl,
There is no need to protect me.
It's time that I
Learn to face up to this on my own.
I've seen so much more than you know now,
So don't tell me to shut my eyes.

I'm not a girl,
Not yet a woman.
All I need is time,
A moment that is mine,
While I'm in between.

I'm not a girl,
But if you look at me closely,
You will see it my eyes.
This girl will always find
Her way.

I'm not a girl
(I'm not a girl don't tell me what to believe).
Not Yet a woman
(I'm just trying to find the woman in me, yeah).
All I need is time (All I need),
A moment that is mine (That is mine),
While I'm in between.

I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time (All I need),
A moment that is mine,
While I'm in between.

I'm not a girl,
Not yet a woman.

While I'm not either, we do all need time to figure out just who we are.
