And I felt myself getting optimistic

I thought this felt too unrealistic

All seemed like it was going so well

Maybe I just missed something I couldn't tell

I thought you were my reason, I thought we could be side by side

you can never guess what someone feels inside.

Nervous when we're walking, both fear this fear of falling

Now you're gone I can now see us both dissolving.

Now to start from the beginning, to stop this wishful thinking

Need to get this smile out of my mind

I thought I was enough, I've been trying real hard

Didn't stop the guard around your heart

I'm starting to learn not to look for a future

These chances seem to be getting fewer and fewer

Tied here by a tether to my roots,

Looking for a way to try and be set loose

I'm learning not to love so fast

Trying to learn from mistakes gone past

Trying to be free and cut this tether

To head toward something better

something better...

I'm starting to learn

I'm starting to grow

I'm learning to love

I'm learning to float

I'm learning to be

I'm learning what I want to be
