I was cooking dinner, heard a ring at my front door
I opened up and saw him, never felt like that before
The moment that our eyes met I knew I'd never forget
Sometimes the thing you most need is right there, but you can't see

Running out of time, I'm runnin' away
I'm running out of ways of running away
Got to slow down, if you don't, you're gonna breakdown

I never really noticed when he moved in next to me
Sometimes it's amazing just how blind a girl can be
If I weren't busy runnin'
I might have seen it comin'

That's life, if you open up your eyes
You'll find it gets better all the time

In the moment that one thing ends
Is the same time that one begins
And return as we must
We are ashes to dust, amen.

We met underneath the blue skies of summer
And those summer skies turn into fall
That sweet September wind made us so muse more than friends

I want to run though those cottonwood trees
Fall asleep in a big bed of fresh fallen leaves
And in every wind that blows there's a song of letting go
It's no goodbye, it's hello

I'm so sick and tired of being told what's good for me.
People got lots of ideas, of who I'm supposed to be.

Mom im trying,
im living my life the best way that i can.

im trying to be somebody,
im not trying to be somebody else,
dont you know me,
i wont ever let you down.

This life is mine and i am my own.
