Miya Folick - Talking with Strangers lyrics

[Verse 1] Today I talked to a semi-stranger A girl that I sorta know But every encounter at the corner grocery Holds potential for our relationship to grow And half of my brain was totally afraid That she'd hate me, never want to see me again And half of my brain was equally afraid That she'd like me, want to be my friend [Pre-Chorus] I am learning to love I am learning to let myself be loved [Chorus] How did I miss this lesson when I was young? How did I miss this lesson when I was young? How did I miss this lesson when I was young? [Verse 2] Yesterday I was anxious and alone So I called a friend to make me feel okay And for a moment, I found myself angry at him for offering help When I should have just been grateful for what he gave [Pre-Chorus] I am learning to love I am learning to let myself be loved [Chorus] How did I miss this lesson when I was young? How did I miss this lesson when I was young? How did I miss this lesson when I was young? [Bridge] Be gentle with me I might not be ready Be gentle with me I might not be ready [Pre-Chorus] I am learning to love I am learning to let myself be loved [Chorus] How did I miss this lesson when I was young? How did I miss this lesson when I was young? How did I miss this lesson when I was young? [Outro]
