[Intro]
I feel like I've been locked up
Oh, oh, oh
My body's sayin' 'let's go'
Oh, oh, oh
C'mon, c'mon
Oh, oh, oh
Baby, baby, baby (baby, baby, baby)
Oh, oh, oh
(I grant you three wishes 'cause I'll be the genie)
Christina Aguilera
Oh, oh, oh
[Verse 1]
It seems like a lifetime
Since I felt like a prisoner of my dreams, yeah
It took such a long time
For me to realize just how to be
And to listen to me
[Verse 2]
Don't go thinking I'm not thankful
'Cause me, I've got my hands full of good things, ooh
And I hope I can give back a little bit of what you've given me
I absolutely love your music
You inspire me to keep on living
(So what you gotta say?)
[Chorus]
So thank you for standing right by me (I will always love you)
So thank you for being behind me (you are just so amazing)
And watching me grow and lettin' others know
That you still believe in what I'll be
[Spoken]

My name is Cory Seal
My name's Jessica Cavanaugh
I just wanted to let you know
That you are truly one of the best artist's
That I've ever come across
You've taught me to not care
About what other people think
You deeply affected me and helped me
To deal with and overcome some incidents
From my past that I was never able to fix before
Tu musica me ha inspirado a ser mas fuerte
My name is Carlos Valenzuela
There was a time in my life when I wanted to commit suicide
Your music, uh, helped me get through the rough times
On the stripped album, my favorite song is 'Walk Away'
It helped me get over a lot stuff with my ex-boyfriend
Your music is so inspiring
I was employed in Iraq during the war
I was 82nd airborne division
And your voice is just so inspiring and so moving
It kept a lot of us going
Keep inspiring people, 'cause you're doing a great job
This is Shane Burrows
You're a classy honest woman both naughty and nice
Ravishing, seductive and sexy
Christina, thank you so much, please never stop
Ha
[Verse 3]
Some people have said things in times
About me that weren't always true
Ooh, yeah
But you've always been there
To give that extra love to pull me through
To do what I gotta do
[Verse 4]
'Cause there'll always be those ups and downs
But you always seemed to stick around
And See me through to believe, yeah
And I hope I can keep back
A little bit of what you've given me
Ya give me all that I need, yeah
[Chorus]
So thank you for standing right by me (I thank you for everything)
So thank you for being behind me (thank you Christina)
And watching me grow and lettin' others know
That you still believe in what I'll be
(Sing it, girl)
[Verse 5]
It took a while 'till I could do what I wanted
And now I'm so happy that I started where I started
I'm thankin' God that I can be in a position
To do my own thing now and make my own decisions
And so I'm thanking you for being true
And standin' by me through and through
