I've got to be a nice girl
A good girl
A get down on my knees girl
To paint pretty picture just for you
You said it was a cold world
A cruel world
Such a dog eat dog world
Now I know it's true
I won't sell my soul for something
I might want but I can't keep
You pay for it with pieces of a dream
And that ain't gonna leave no room for you
CHORUS
I'm gonna please myself
To my own heart be true
I'm gonna please myself
Cause I'll never find a way to pleasing you
You promised me a big life
A bold life
A better than my old life
Baby there's a price that I can't pay
I'm gonna have to grow up
To wise up
Gonna have to get tough
Gonna have to walk away
I won't sell my soul for something
I might want but I don't need
You pay for it with pieces of a dream
And I ain't gonna shed a tear for you
CHORUS
I'm gonna please myself
To my own heart be true
I'm gonna please myself
Cause I'll never find a way of pleasing you
I thought I had found my one and only fate
I'll never know what I was dreaming of
The time has come to end this long and lonely wait
While I write the book on crazy love
Crazy love
CHORUS
I'm gonna please myself
To my own heart be true
I'm gonna please myself
Cause I'll never find a way of pleasing you
A good girl
A get down on my knees girl
To paint pretty picture just for you
You said it was a cold world
A cruel world
Such a dog eat dog world
Now I know it's true
I won't sell my soul for something
I might want but I can't keep
You pay for it with pieces of a dream
And that ain't gonna leave no room for you
CHORUS
I'm gonna please myself
To my own heart be true
I'm gonna please myself
Cause I'll never find a way to pleasing you
You promised me a big life
A bold life
A better than my old life
Baby there's a price that I can't pay
I'm gonna have to grow up
To wise up
Gonna have to get tough
Gonna have to walk away
I won't sell my soul for something
I might want but I don't need
You pay for it with pieces of a dream
And I ain't gonna shed a tear for you
CHORUS
I'm gonna please myself
To my own heart be true
I'm gonna please myself
Cause I'll never find a way of pleasing you
I thought I had found my one and only fate
I'll never know what I was dreaming of
The time has come to end this long and lonely wait
While I write the book on crazy love
Crazy love
CHORUS
I'm gonna please myself
To my own heart be true
I'm gonna please myself
Cause I'll never find a way of pleasing you
