lyrics

I thought I was prepared
I thought I had it in the bag
But the teachers never taught me this
How to quietly bite my tongue

All that I wanted, all I ever sought
Holding my heart as I walk down the path

See the footprints as I go back (as I go back)
All the memories lined in branches (and my heart cracks)
Hope the sun will peak through the clouds
But the rain is always coming

Don't worry, I have my umbrella
Though the drizzle before got me damp
It's a long way from home here
So I will have to travel as I am

And so much for wanting, this is all I got
I dropped my heart a couple times and got a little lost

Feel my footprints as I go back (as I go back)
All my memories lined in branches (and my heart cracks)
Hope the sun will peak through the clouds (I will walk home)
And make the streak of storms be broken

The more that I want this, the more it goes away
I was following a bird, she didn't want to stay

I walk our footprints as I go back (as I go back)
Through all of our memories lined in the branches (and my heart cracks)
I hope the sun will peak through the clouds (I will walk home)
I pray to god that I won't be drowned out
