I need time (time)
(love)
Joy (joy)
I need space (love)
I need me

(Action!)

Say hello to the girl that I am!
You're gonna have to see through my perspective
I need to make mistakes just to learn who I am
And I don't wanna be so damn protected

There must be another way
Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
God, I need some answers

Chorus:
What am I to do with my life (You will find out don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I tell 'em what I like
What I won't
What I don't
But every time I do I stand corrected
Things that I've known
I can't believe what I hear about the world, I realize
I'm Overprotected

There must be another way
Cause I believe in taking chances
But who am I to say
What a girl is to do
God I need some answers

What am I to do with my life (You will find out don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I need time (love)
I need space
(This is it, this is it)

I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna
What I want what what I'm gonna (I need)
Do about my destiny
I say (no no)
And Nobody's telling me just what i wanna (do do)
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be-e
Someone else but me

(Action!)

What am I to do with my life (You will find out don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected

I don't need nobody telling me just what I wanna
What I want what what I'm gonna (I need)
Do about my destiny
I say (no no)
Nobody's tellin me just what i wanna (do do)
I'm so fed up with people telling me to be-e
Someone else but me

What am I to do with my life (You will find out don't worry)
How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just got to do it your way)
I can't help the way I feel
But my life has been so overprotected
