19 Turning Point

Vanessa Amorosi

My beginnings 
Were a lesson learnt 
Adding up my years, I was just 19. 

At this tender age 
My brain clicked on 
Who are you to point 
And who are you to judge me 

I wasn't perfect but I knew wrong from right 
Maybe I partied just a little too long sometimes 
But I pulled together and I did alright 

I been ripped out 
And washed up on a highway 
I learnt from went down 
Who's there from the right things 
Now I'm, now I'm strong 
With a nineteen turning point 
Nineteen turning point 
A turnin point at nineteen 
A nineteen turning point 

MK firing 
Many rounds 
That's what I was like, if you knew me 
But I did ok 
Maybe bruised and scared 
But I somehow knew it was just the beginning 

If I turned the tables you would know what its like 
No sheltered baby I was a little out there sometimes 
But I pulled together and I did alright 

I been ripped out 
And washed up on a highway 
I learnt from went down 
Who's there from the right things 
Now I'm, now I'm strong 
With a nineteen turning point 
Nineteen turning point 
A turnin point at nineteen 
A nineteen turning point 

Nineteen revolution in the air 
As long as I can live with what I did 
Some people have a turning turning at 17, 20 to 25 
As long as it keeps their dreams alive 

I been ripped out 
And washed up on a highway 
I learnt from went down 
Who's there from the right things 
Now I'm, now I'm strong 
With a nineteen turning point 
Nineteen turning point 
A turnin point at nineteen 
A nineteen turning point
