I used to spend my days
Just a rat in the race
Working overtime and sleeping like the dead
Treating my body and my soul
Like they were disposable
Waking up in last night's makeup again
So kind to everyone else
Everyone except myself
But I take care of me now
Know how to take my time
Pour a glass of wine
In my favorite sweater and
I take care of me now
Since I made up my mind
I'm gonna be just fine
Every day gets better and
I got bad bruises, but the good news is
I take care of me now
I used to want to try to get you
To come to my rescue
Now I've learned to fight these battles on my own
And if life is a party
We can dance with anybody
Yeah, but I'm the one who's taking me home
Oh, and I used to be yours
Not anymore, no
I take care of me now
I know how to take my time
Pour a glass of wine
And write my own love letters and
I take care of me now
Since I made up my mind
I'm gonna be just fine
Every day gets better and
I got bad bruises, but the good news is
I take care of me now
I chose anything but myself
I'm never gonna do that now
'Cause I take care of me now
I know how to take my time, yeah
And write my own love letters
I take care of me now
I know how to take my time
Pour a glass of wine
In my favorite sweater and
I take care of me now
Since I made up my mind
I'm gonna be just fine
Every day gets better and
I got bad bruises, and the good news is
I take care of me
I take care of me now
Yes, I do
Every day gets better
