All I can say is things didn't go as I planned Seems everyday I'm learning it's out of my hands And coming to terms is harder than ever before When you would give anything to know what all of this is for Well there are things that I cannot change now But these are strings that I will untangle Give me a high road to rise up and follow I'll keep my eyes closed and breathe And give me a tightrope to walk from the highest peak And I'll never look down at my feet Somebody thought if you can let down your pride You won't be afraid; fear is not a safe place to hide And I was convinced I'd never win your love, no But I didn't see all I really needed was my own And there are things that I can't explain now But it's not too late, and I am so thankful That I got a high road to rise up and follow I'll keep my eyes closed and breathe Give me a tightrope to walk from the highest peak And I'll never look down at my feet I've been down enough times to know it's no good And I'm working overtime, just thinking I should Carry all of this weight around I'm finding out that I never could I never could So give me a high road to rise up and follow I'll keep my eyes closed and breathe And give me a tightrope to walk from the highest peak And I'll never look down at my feet Never look down at my feet
