Since I felt like a prisoner of my dreams, yeah, yeah
'Cause there'll always be those ups and downs
And I hope I can give back
It took awhile 'til I could do what I wanted
But you've always been there
To give that extra love to pull me through, to do what I gotta do
See me through to believe, yeah
Come on, come on
So thank you for being behind me, thank you, Christina
It took such a long time
It seems like a lifetime
That you still believe in what I'll be
You given me all that I need, yeah
And watching me grow and letting others know
A little bit of what you've given me
And I hope I can give back
But you've always seemed to stick around and see
So thank you for standing right by me, I thank you for everything
And now I'm so happy that it started where we started
For me to realize just how to be and to listen to me
Don't go thinking I'm not thankful
'Cause me, I've got my hands full of good things
I grant you three wishes 'cause I be the genie
So people have said things in times
To do my own thing now and make my own decisions
About me that weren't always true, ooh, yeah
And watching me grow and letting others know
A little bit of what you've given me
So thank you for being behind me, you are just so amazing
So thank you for standing right by me, I will always love you
Baby, baby, baby
Christina Aguilera
And so I'm thanking you for being true
I'm thanking God that I could be in the position
That you still believe in what I'll be, sing it, girl
