Love spoke my name
And I felt life run through me
Reborn in the flame
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
And 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
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
So if my beauty starts to fade
Well, I've been held in a thousand ways
And 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
