Lyrics

[Chorus] I'm having a private party Ain't nobody here but me, my angels, and my guitar singin' baby look how far we've come here I'm havin' a private party Learning how to love me Celebrating the woman I've become, yeah [Verse 1] I tried to call my mother, but She didn't get where I was going I called my boyfriend and he said "Call me back a little later baby" I hung up the phone, I felt so alone Started to feel a little pity That's when I realized that I Gotta find the joy inside of me [Chorus] I'm having a private party Ain't nobody here but me, my angels, and my guitar singin' baby look how far we've come here I'm havin' a private party Learning how to love me Celebrating the woman I've become, yeah [Verse 2] I'm gonna take off all my clothes Look at myself in the mirror We're gonna have a conversation We're gonna heal the disconnection I don't remember when it started But this is where it's gonna end My body is beautiful and sacred And I'm gonna celebrate it [Chorus] I'm having a private party Ain't nobody here but me, my angels, and my guitar singin' baby look how far we've come here I'm havin' a private party Learning how to love me Celebrating the woman I've become, yeah [Bridge] All my life (all my life) I've been looking for (I've been looking for) Somebody else (else) To make me whole (ooo) But I had to learn the hard way (ooo) True love began with me (ooo) This is not ego or vanity (ooo) I'm just celebrating me [Chorus] I'm having a private party Ain't nobody here but me, my angels, and my guitar singin' baby look how far we've come here I'm havin' a private party Learning how to love me Celebrating the woman I've become, yeah [Verse 3] Sometimes I'm alone but never lonely That's what I've come to realize I've learned to love the quiet moments The Sunday mornings of life Where I can reach deep down inside Or out into the universe I can laugh until I cry Or I can cry away the hurt [Chorus] I'm having a private party Ain't nobody here but me, my angels, and my guitar singin' baby look how far we've come here I'm havin' a private party Learning how to love me Celebrating the woman I've become, yeah [Outro] Happy birthday to me (Happy birthday) Happy birthday to me Happy birthday Happy birthday to me Happy birthday to me Happy birthday To the woman I've become [Chorus] I'm having a private party Ain't nobody here but me, my angels, and my guitar singin' baby look how far we've come here I'm havin' a private party Learning how to love me Celebrating the woman I've become, yeah [Chorus] I'm having a private party Ain't nobody here but me, my angels, and my guitar singin' baby look how far we've come here I'm havin' a private party Learning how to love me Celebrating the woman I've become, yeah
