It's a great big world to a scared little girl If you'd smile just right, no one knows you might Have a heart full of pain and a soul that can't reign
I rode my bicycle past your window last night I roller skated to your door at daylight It almost seems like you're avoiding me I'm okay alone but you'
I have a few words in defense of my youth My guts are feeling an ocean or two I was young, I didn't know what I would stumble into I've had a lot on
Why'd I have to go and be a fool again? Why'd I have to go and make a big thing outta nothing? I didn't know what I had 'til you were gone It was right
It's not right Did I jump into love? Didn't know how to land Now I'm deep into water, unable to stand Can I silence the dangers, be blind to the signs
My pose goes to a moon When I know you're here My heart runs to another room When I know you're near And they say that you don't know What you got 'til
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah Breathe, breathe, breathe before you get old Sing, sing, sing a song that you know
You, by the light Is the greatest find In a world full of wrong You're the thing that's right Finally made it through the lonely To the other side You

All the memories I have come on through Every corner thinkin' of you So I keep on drivin', drivin' Keep on drivin' down the avenue Lost in the middle
They say, get up out of that bed turn the lights on Gotta try to forget where it went wrong Don't you beat yourself up asking questions Love's gonna come
I kind of like this game 'Cause I always played it safe Let a bird out of its cage It's gonna fly away But the feel of the unknown Has led me far away
I lay beside you; I can't sleep And you don't even know about me My back is turned a world away And you don't even know These tears are falling And all
[ Johnny Wright ] I was standing by my window on one cold and cloudy day When I saw the hearse come rolling for to carry my mother away Can the circle
I was standing by the window On a cold and cloudy day When I saw the hearse come rolling To carry my mother away Will the circle be unbroken Bye and
Will the circle be unbroken? Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye There's a better home awaiting In the sky, Lord, in the sky I was standing by the window
Dead air and red lips control my staggered speech. Another breath and my eyes no longer reach. Choking on the glass that you once saw me through. Shattered
There are loved ones in the glory, Whose dear forms you often miss; When you close your earthly story, Will you join them in their bliss? Refrain
