IT'S MY TURN by Diana Ross

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

Well, at least I know I'll take my share of chances

‘Cause there ain't no use in holdin’ on

When nothin’ 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 that won't be easy

It's my turn with no more room for lies

For years I'd 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

It's my turn, it's my turn

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

Yes, it's my turn

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

And 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
