Love spoke my name

And I felt life run through me

Reborn in the flames

Nothing can undo me

Ooh, I believe that I'm becoming

So if my beauty starts to fade

Well, I've been held in a thousand ways

If my heart looks broken in

Then I've been brave enough to live

If perfect turns to perfect mess

And all Your love is all that's left

Then I'm as real as real can be

Call me Velveteen

Shadow and light

I learned to let them find me

Coming alive feels a lot like dying

Ooh, I believe that I'm becoming

So if my beauty starts to fade

Well I've been held in a thousand ways

If my heart looks broken in

Then I've been brave enough to live

If perfect turns to perfect mess

And all Your love is all that's left

Then I'm as real as real can be

Call me Velveteen

I know it's true no matter

True no matter how I feel

'Cause I'm becoming

I'm becoming real

So if my beauty starts to fade

If my heart looks broken in

If my beauty starts to fade

Well I've been held in a thousand ways

If my heart looks broken in

Then I've been brave enough to live

If perfect turns to perfect mess

And all Your love is all that's left

Then I'm as real as real can be

I'm as real as real can be

Then I'm as real as real can be

Call me Velveteen
