september is mine!

Private party


I'm having a private party
Ain't nobody here but me, my angels, and my guitar
Singing baby look how far we've come here
I'm having private party
Learning how to love me
Celebrating the woman I've become yeah

I tried to call my mother,
But she didn't get where I was going
I called my boyfriend and he said
Call me back a little later baby
I hung up the phone, I felt so alone
Started to feel a little pity
That's when I realized that I gotta find the joy inside of me

I'm gonna take off all my clothes
Look at myself in the mirror
We're gonna have a conversation
We're gonna heal the disconnection
I don't remember when it started
But this where it's gonna end
My body is beautiful and sacred
And I'm gonna celebrate it

All my life, I've been looking for somebody else
To make me whole
But I had to learn the hard way
True love began with me
This is not ego or vanity
I'm just celebrating me

Sometimes I'm alone but never lonely
That's what I've come to realize
I've learned to love the quiet moments
The sunday mornings of life
Where I can reach deep down inside
Or out into the universe
I can laugh untill I cry
Or I can cry away the hurt..

Happy birthday to me,,
Happy birthday to me,,
Happy birthday..
