Maybe I'm just scared of going back to what I'm used to

Or maybe your love made me a fool

I know letters fade and flowers die

And people come and go

But I'm tripping over my own feet just trying

to get back to the road

 

I thought that I was lost

but maybe I'm just waiting to be found
I thought that I was flying

but maybe I'm just falling off the ground

I thought that I was strong

but maybe I'm just too weak to

let go of the things that hold me down

 

I'm sick of being told I need to change

Or maybe I already did and you're the one to blame

But we're running out of time and

baby I can't stop this train

 

I thought that I was lost

but maybe I'm just waiting to be found

I thought that I was flying

but maybe I'm just falling off the ground

I thought that I was strong

but maybe I'm just too weak to

let go of the things that hold me down

 

Where were you when the rain fell and

pushed me to my knees

I need someone to hold onto

Someone who needs me

And I'm sorry for the things I left unsaid

I'm sorry for the strings I left undone

But once the words are spoken they'll be gone

And that's what I'm afraid of

 

Maybe I'm scared of going back to what I'm used to

Or maybe your love made me a fool

 

I thought that I was lost

but maybe I'm just waiting to be found

I thought that I was flying

but maybe I'm just falling off the ground

I thought that I was strong

but maybe I'm just too weak to

let go of the things that hold me down
