It's My Turn Lyrics - Aretha Franklin

I can't cover up my feelings 

In the name of love 

Or play it safe 

For a while that was easy 

And if living for myself 

Is what I'm guilty of 

Go on and sentence me 

I'll still be free 

It's my turn 

To see what I can see 

I hope you'll understand 

This time's just for me 

Because it's my turn 

With no apologies 

I've given up the truth 

To those I've tried to please

But now it's my turn 

If I don't have all the answers 

At least I know I'll take my share of chances 

Ain't no use in holding on 

When nothing stays the same 

So I'll let it rain 

'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me 

And I'll let you go 

'Though I know it won't be easy 

It's my turn 

With no more room for lies 

FOR YEARS I'VE SEEN MY LIFE 

Through someone else's eyes 

And now it's my turn 

To try and find my way 

And if I should get lost 

At least I'll own today

It's my turn 

Yes, it's my turn 

And there ain't no use in holding of 

When nothing stays the same 

So I'll let it rain 

'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me 

And I'll let you go 

'Though I know it won't be easy 

It's my turn 

To see what I can see 

I hope you'll understand 

This time's just for me 

Because it's my turn 

To turn and say goodbye 

I sure would like to know 

That you're still on my side 

Because it's my turn 

It's my turn 

It's my turn 

To start from number one 

Trying to undo 

Some damage that's been done 

But now it's my turn 

To reach and touch the sky 

No one's gonna say 

At least I didn't try 

It's my turn 

Yes, it's my turn 

It's my turn 

It's my turn 

It's my turn
