Mutya Buena - Real Girl lyrics

If I had one chance to in my life again
I wouldn't make no changes, now
Or way back when, yeah
And if everything turns out the
Way I hope it goes
But I can't wait to find out
What it is that God knows

But I don't wanna think about
What's gonna come around for me
I'll just take it day by day
'Cause it's the only way
To be the best that I can be

I never pretend to be something I'm not
You get what you see when
You see what I've got
We live in the real world
I'm just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand
And all I can do is be true to myself
I don't need permission from nobody else
'Cause this is the real world
I'm not a little girl
I know exactly who I am

And nothing's ever perfect
There's no guarantee
And if I knew the answers, it
Would put my mind at ease, no no
So I'll just keep on going the
Way I've gone so far
And maybe I'll end up tryin'
To catch a fallin' star, yeah

But I don't wanna think about
What's gonna come around for me
I'll just take it day by day
'Cause it's the only way
To be the best that I can be

I never pretend to be something I'm not
You get what you see when
You see what I've got
We live in the real world
I'm just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand
And all I can do is be true to myself
I don't need permission from nobody else
'Cause this is the real world
I'm not a little girl
I know exactly who I am

Maybe this is who I am
Don't need you to understand
'Cause everything is right where it should be
And it won't be long till you know about me
'Cause I don't give up even
When I'm out on love
'Cause everythings just how it should be
And it won't be long till you know about me

I never pretend to be something I'm not
You get what you see when
You see what I've got
We live in the real world
I'm just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand
And all I can do is be true to myself
I don't need permission from nobody else (No)
'Cause this is the real world
I'm not a little girl
I know exactly who I am
I never pretend to be something I'm not
You get what you see when
You see what I've got
We live in the real world
I'm just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand
And all I can do is be true to myself
I don't need permission from nobody else
'Cause this is the real world
I'm not a little girl
I know exactly who I am

I know exactly who I am
