Some don't believe I'm a livin' soul
Just a bad mistake that needs to go
If my momma could've just seen my face
Then maybe she would've had me anyway
And there are those who speak for me
Who fight for lives that they can't see
But there are some who only mourn
This life of mine if I were born
And all I wanted was a chance
To learn to love, and laugh, and dance
Oh, but I was gone before I arrived
Sent back to Heaven on a starlight flight
Yeah, I was gonna change the world
And I was gonna be a girl
First thing I was gonna do
Was breathe and fall in love with you
But a couple of weeks before I saw the light
Mine flickered out when you changed your mind
And all I wanted was a chance
To learn to love, and laugh, and dance
Oh, but I was gone before I arrived
Sent back to Heaven on a starlight flight
I was gonna have some pretty curls
And I was gonna be a girl
I'm more than just some one-night stand
Or some burden that you think I am
And there ain't no man who's ever gonna be
What I was gonna be
Some don't believe I'm a livin' soul
Just a bad mistake that needs to go
