One day I wish that I could reach the stars
But I have to grow roots before branches
I flew too high, missed the mark and went far
I took the easy road and missed chances
I need to learn who I am before I
Begin to fathom who I want to be
I need to forgive the past, say goodbye
Even though it makes me weak at the knee
We all walk a lonely world, I see now
The truths in our heads and what's real are not
The same but that does not mean we'll allow
The butterflies to untangle their knots
So I have to grow roots before branches
I'll start to walk then start taking chances
