Lyrics to "Let Me Out of Here (Cheryl's Cry)"

by Christine Cochrane

You've recognised this person the whole of your life.
You've listened to the words that she's said.
You've known her all along
because she is there,
inside your head.
You've listened to her tell you how she wants to be free,
and how she can fulfil all your dreams.
You know she is right,
but you just don't know
what it all means.

(chorus)
You've listened to her voice whisper quiet in your ear.
You've listened to her thoughts, so loud and so clear.
"Let me out of here, let me out of here,
I want to feel the sun on my face.
I want to do the things that every woman can do.
I want to take my natural place.
Let me out of here, let me out of here
I've been in here too lonely too long.
I want to show the world what this woman can do.
I want to be out where I belong."
Where I belong.

She's wanted to express all her emotions and thoughts.
She's always tried to put up a fight.
She's torn you both apart,
and that's when you've found yourself
crying at night.
You've often sat and pondered on the meaning of life
and whether this is part of a plan.
You know you have the
mind of a beautiful girl,
but the shell of a man.

(chorus)

You finally decide you will fulfil all your dreams,
and make your mind and body as one.
You know that there are many
changes ahead,
but the journey's begun.
You're very glad you listened to the things that she'd said
You listened to her voice in your ear.
And now that you have charted
your course straight ahead,
it all seems so clear.

(chorus)
