I want to stand on the stage again
To feel the butterflies in my stomach
As I wait anxiously in the wings
I want to remember what it is to be brave enough to take the stage again
To be proud enough to take the stage again
Because even though in that moment
I am scared
I am also strong

You know every secret
You know my feelings just by looking at my face
You know when to tell me straight and when to give me space
And I can tell just what your thinking by the way you smile
And not talking to you always feels like too long,
Even if it's only been a little a while
I know neither of us are perfect
But I just can't help but see
That no matter where life takes us
This friendship was meant to be

You know that moment when you are so tired but yet you continue to stay awake?
The moment you decide that you are going to put yourself through stress and discomfort for just a little longer instead of just going to bed
When the next episode of the show you have been watching all night becomes more important than your actual sanity
When, for some reason, anything in the world is more important, more necessary, than sleep
But yet we are fighting the thing that will give us the most relief

Spring is coming to an end
Summer is right around the bend
And although I have been waiting for the sun, my friend
Part of me wishes the rain would come back again

My bags are packed and by the door
Everything is back to the way it was before
Before me and all the things that make me who I am
But looking back on the past year I don't think I can
Be the person I was
I have changed because
I now know what it is to be on my own
To find out what I really want in my home
And as I close the door to leave
I realize that the room is again empty

As I lay here in my bed I relax and close my eyes
Blocking out all the noise and the lights that fill the skies
Your face is blurry but the feelings I have are clear
And I think about what it would be like if your were really here
With one hand on my stomach the other on my heart
I can almost feel you here with me even though we are far apart
I imagine us together with you fingers in my hair
The way you let me have my way even when it isn’t fair
I don’t know who you are yet or maybe I might
But for now I will be here
Waiting to see the love of my life

I jumped
Two feet
Eyes closed
Hands clenched tight
Screaming like a crazy person
I jumped
I am still falling and I don't know
How or where
I will land
