I wanted to be safe I wanted to get by I almost lost my edge I could not fathom why But You would never let me Your dang'rous side won out 'Cause You knew what I wanted I wanted to get out Chorus: It's a wide wide world And I almost lost You in it It's a chance to live But it almost pa**ed me by It's an open door To live for something better 'Cause You keep leading me Into the wide wide world Did Moses want to turn back After crossing the red sea? I bet that he got nervous I wish that I could see 'Cause I've got the shakes all over And I want to turn around But I'm twice as scared of missing The good that can be found Chorus 'Cause You are past the borders Somewhere off the map Of what feels comfortable And I am so grateful for that It's adventure that we want And it's what we'll fin'lly get There's nothing safe about You But sometimes I forget So lead me into the wide world Don't let me miss my chance 'Cause I'll blink and it'll be over And I won't pa** here again
