I was young and yes foolish I fell for everything you said And though at time I felt rejected I kept it all inside my head I never asked you why You always ran away from it But I won't cry Cause I've reinvented myself I'm a new me I'm stronger than I was before And I'm not hurting anymore And if you knew me You'd know just how happy I am When you fall in love blindly You brush away the warning signs And instead you find excuses To try, to occupy, your mind It took a long, long time For me to finally find myself But now I'm fine Cause I've reinvented myself I'm a new me I'm stronger than I was before And I'm not hurting anymore So you can't fool me I mean every word I say I wasn't born just yesterday And if you knew me You'd know just how happy I am I can love you as a lover But when everything is said and done And my song comes to an end I might still love you as a friend I'm a new me I'm stronger than I was before And I'm not hurting anymore So you can't fool me I mean every word I say I wasn't born just yesterday And if you knew me You'd know just how happy I am
