I packed my bags and headed straight to the nearest town,
My fate was held by merely my swift feet and the ground.
I knew I had to get away and now was my only chance
I walked down the path not looking back, not a single glance.
My mind raced with thoughts of what you'd do when you found out
I knew that you'd be angry, I knew that without a doubt.
But still I kept on walking,
Straight to that little town.
I didn't dare begin to think about turning around.
I arrived there faster that I thought, and what joy did fill my heart
I was that much closer to my dream, a dream of a brand new start.
I scurried to the station and held firmly to my pass
I thought about all those times, the times that were now my past
I would no longer have to hear the anger in your voice
No longer have to face the days where I didn't have a choice
I wouldn't have to hide behind sun glasses and long sleeves
And I wouldn't have to hurt inside while crying on my knees
And then I saw my future, so bright and full of life
I saw happiness and joy, no more bitterness or strife.
I grabbed my bags beside me and boarded my escape
Who knew a train could help you leave a very scary fate.

I'll let my tears blend in with these puddles on the ground.  
Sorrow in my heart as this rain is pouring down.
Giving it all up to You, the one who holds the plan.
The Lord of heaven and of earth, of animal and man.
I'll trust in you because I know that You will do what's best
I'll just keep praying for Your will and let You do the rest.

My eyes are closed as I talk to you cuz I can't stand to bear
The look behind those hazel eyes, I can feel you stare.
Although the words are hard to say as they trickle off my lips
I open my eyes and say them, I could no longer resist.
The words they flowed so smoothly, like a sweet scent in the breeze
Those three words were all I had, my heart fell to my knees.
I caught my breath before I let my eyes fall upon yours,
- it's harsh just like the ocean crashing on the shores.
I peak at you with hesitance, unsure of what you'd say.
Your voice it shakes as you begin to say you feel that same way.
Although they are just words, the meaning is so strong,
I will love you always...for all of my life long.
