From the recording You're the Reason
Lyrics
Boss of TLC
I used to be afraid, I couldn't hold all of you,
There wasn't enough love in my heart to go around
But what I learned. What I know now.
There’s miles and miles of love waiting to be found.
I used to be afraid there'd be nothing left of me.
All of my dreams would come unglued and come unbound
What I learned as years flew by.
Your the dream my heart was chasing all the time.
I'm not a super star a doctor. Don't know computers or the law,
But my heads above of that ceiling in the sky.
I'm the CEO of Supper and I'm the Boss of TLC,
Cause I got to be your mother my dear child.
No I can't deny it, you know I can't deny anymore,
No I can't deny it, you know I can't deny anymore.
I kept hoping every dollar I earned would make me feel I'm enough.
You taught me to stop chasing money start cherishing love.
I kept hoping every dollar I earned would make me feel I'm enough.
You taught me to stop chasing money start cherishing love.
Undeniably you taught me love means everything.
I'm a little bit confused wondering what I should do
I'm going to miss the joy of having you around
But as you soar know you taught me well.
I'll be a CEO of love no matter where I'm bound
I'm not a super star a dr don't know computers or the law.
But my heads above of that ceiling in the sky.
I'm the CEO of supper and the Boss of TLC,
Cause I got to be your mother, my dear child.
