I still remember those nights When I go to bed My grandma used to put on this beautiful song Although at the time I didn't know it was country This song called "Tennessee Waltz" Really touched my heart
After I lost my grandma, I came to Nashville To look for the things she left me I met its beautiful music and happy people And a part of me I didn't even know
Being in Nashville I realized it doesn't matter what other people think What matters is who I wanna be Sometimes I need to leave behind Family and friends to do what I wanna do But above all, I need to stay true to myself always
Afraid of hurting somebody else and me Trying to be the perfect girl Because I believed we could be happier this way But deep in my heart I was hoping for someone To reach out for me and ease my pain
I can't suddenly change everything I'm still afraid to be naked But wanna be true to myself, wanna stay natural Sweet Nashville has taught me the voice of my heart This true heart that I found will sing eternally
Being in Nashville I realized it doesn't matter what other people think What matters is who I wanna be Sometimes I need to leave behind Family and friends to do what I wanna do But above all, I need to stay true to myself always
