I let myself fall
I let myself fall
I let myself fall
I let myself fall
In love with you
There's no turning back
There's no turning back
Since I let myself
Fall in love with you
Now I picture things
Now I picture things
Wedding gowns and
Wedding rings
Since I let myself
Fall in love with you

When I was young
I did it my way
I did it my way and I still do
Held my head up high
Asking god for answers and begging him to tell me what
To do
So I play music that's what I do
When I sing I lose myself
There's nothing more I'd rather do
Lord knows I've tried everything else
When I finished school
I took the highway
I took the highway looking for you
Never thought that i
Would ever find you; that you'd be looking for me too
And when you love me, you love me well
When I'm with you I lose myself
There's nothing more I would rather do
Than spend the rest of my life loving you
When I was young
I did it my way
I did it my way and I still do
So I play music that's what I do
And when I sing I lose myself
There's nothing more I'd rather do
Lord knows I've tried everything else

Red rover, red rover, send Mary right over
Schoolbooks in her hand and a shawl over her shoulders
And let her run, run as fast as she can
Don't let her grow up to be like her mother
Heart so unconvinced and a world so undiscovered
And asking for forgiveness, not knowing how to forgive
In time, just let her go
In time, she's beautiful
If you hold her back she may never know
Red rover, red rover, send Daniel right over
Schoolbooks in his hand and a coat over his shoulders
And let him run, run as fast as he can
Don't let him grow up to be like his father
Heart so set in stone and a smile so undercover
And opening the door to love, never letting love in
In time, just let him go
In time, he's beautiful
If you hold him back he may never know

Crazy, crazy is what they've all said
Craziness lives in my head
Craziness lies in my bed
Worry, worrying about everything
Worrying it makes me insane
So much it drives me away
Lonely, loneliness follows me around
Loneliness drags me down
Still lonely with others around
. . .

One more day
Just one more day then I'm done
One more car ride and
One more rising of the sun
Then I'll jump so high
Angels will catch my fall
I'll jump so high
Angels will catch my fall
I had my chance and I just showed it to the door
I won't apologize to myself anymore
So I'll jump so high
Angels will catch my fall
I'll jump so high
Angels will catch my fall
One more day
Just one more day then I'm done
No more failures and
No more feeling alone

I've been waiting all my life
I've been waiting for you to come
I've traveling and wandering
Alone on my own for too long
I swear I tried to convince myself
It would be much easier just being alone
But after running circle after circle
I'm tired of being on my own
I've been waiting all my life
I've been waiting for you to come
I've been traveling and wandering
Alone on my own for too long
I wish I could have met your brother
I would tell him how much I am in love
I swear I'll ask him question after question
Confessions about you growing up
I thank God for blessing me
Well beyond I could have thought
And reminding me how good life can be
When you let yourself fall into his love
Cuz I've been waiting all my life
I've been waiting for you to come
. . .

You and me
Me and you
There's so much that we've been through,
Through it all I've come to understand God's love.
And if tomorrow never comes
Know this twice, just know this once.
Knowing you has made me able to go on.
You and me
Me and you
There couldn't be a better two,
To be blessed and know the meaning of true love.
And if you leave me I'll feel scared,
Fall apart feel so unprepared.
But I dare to make it trough all on my own.
Yes I dare to make it trough on my own.

How am I supposed to know what love is really like,
When, I've never even been in love before?
Aren't you supposed to love yourself before
You can understand how to love someone after all?
How can I find a way to keep my mother safe
From the boogie man who hides under the stairs?
How can I find a way to take this breath away
When he's gently sleeping soundly next to her?
Oh how? Oh how? Oh how? Oh how can I save her?
How am I to live this life when the only certainty
Is that death is waiting for me at the end?
And every day that passes I know time is running out
And I fear that I may fail the life I've been given
Oh how? Oh how? Tell me how? Oh how am I supposed to live?
How am I to define what faith is to a child
When the only explanation lies within?
How am I to tell them if they never follow Christ
That heaven doesn't hold a place for them?
Oh how? Oh how? Tell me how when I'm no better than them
. . .

Gradually
I will get wiser
I will get stronger
I will be bolder
I will not settle
I will fight back and
I will stand up or
I will sit back
All this time you thought
I was weak when
I was just pretending
I was just pretending then
All this time you
Made me believe that
I should be sorry
I should be sorry
Gradually
I will outrun you
I will outgrow you
I will ignore you
I will see clearer
I'll overcome and
I will acknowledge how
Far i have come
All this time you thought
I was weak when
I was just pretending
I was just pretending then
All this time you
Made me believe that
I should be sorry
You should be sorry
For making me fall
Loo da da da da da...
Gradually
I will get older and
I will get wiser and
I will move slower
I will see clearer
I'll overcome and
I will acknowledge how
Far i have come
All this time
You thought i was weak when
I was just pretending and
I was just pretending and
All this time
You made me believe that
I should be sorry
You should be sorry for
Making me fall
Loo da da da da da...

Can you help me
Figure out
All of these things
I'm restless I
Feel reclusive
Holding on by a string
No I can't I'm
Just as broken I'm
Just as damaged as you
I'm so tired and
Uninspired and
Dying in this living hell
Where do I go?
I can't walk in a
A straight line, I
Don't know what I'm heading for
Just keep trying and
No more lying
To yourself anymore
Where do we go?
Nobody knows
. . .
