Victoria Clark, Alli Mauzey and Steven Boyer - Before I Go

I was never the daughter you wanted
That's the thing we never say
But that's the truth and that's okay
We live in a house that's haunted
There's always you, there's always me
And there's the ghost of a girl I'll never be

There's the ghost of a girl I'll never be
Before I go, let go of the ghost
Just let her disappear
And then maybe you'll see me
While I'm still here
I'm still here

I was never the girl you intended
She was young and she was bold
She'd hold your hand when you got old
Let's admit, the dream has ended
And what you wished for wasn't me
It was the ghost of a girl I'll never be

She's the ghost of a girl I'll never be
Before I go, let's give up the ghost
Just he with me instead
I know I might be dying
But I'm not dead
I'm not dead

So before I go, take my hand
Before I fly away, say goodbye
I will go somewhere that's beautiful
I'll go somewhere that's beautiful
It's time let me go

Father Time

Let me go

Slow down the day

Let me fly away

Don't let the dark come in (you have your whole live)
Steal it away

It's time

For goodness sake (your whole life)
You're still awake

See the world
See the world
See the world

And baby wants to play
And baby wants to play

Oh
Dear Make a Wish Foundation of New Jersey
As you probably know by now
My name is Kimberly Levaco
Thank you for the treehouse
But I don't need a treehouse
I'm gonna bungee jump
I'm gonna jet ski
I'm gonna hang glide and clog dance
And swim at the bottom of a waterfall
In New Zealand

I'll see the world
See the world
See the world
Smiley face
