You Were — текст песни (The Lyndsay Diaries)

I`m setting my sights high this time.
This time I`m going to succeed you`ll see.
Say your goodbyes and wave until you`re out of sight.
The tears drop from the cheeks of all who depart.

I`m aiming for the goal but what exactly is that?
To become what I am and my future. It rests on this foundation.
It`s my life, my destiny, but it isn`t free.
I will earn what I am to become and to live off that foundation.

This is the first day of the rest of my life.
And I am not in it for a name or title.
I am learning to be myself and trusting in that.
Willing to work for that love the music of my soul.

I`m taking it all in and trying to give myself away at the same time.
I try not to fall through the cracks but sometimes I slip, everyone does.
It is all part of the process of growing and learning.
By learning I`m growing.

This is the first day of the rest of my life.
And I am not in it for a name or title.
I am learning to be myself and trusting in that.
Willing to work for that love the music of my soul.

And I`m not about to throw it all away.
For the sake of being young and avoiding responsibility.
And I won`t turn my back on this.
Who would I be if I just ran away?
I think I`d rather not say.
I can`t run away.
I can`t run away
...but what if I fall?
