When I was young nothing seemed to touch me
even the force of a breaking day
nothing could prevent it from coming
yet it felt so far away
Now I shouldn't be afraid of the journey
everyone must take to the sea
But the wood and the iron beneath me
holds strong under my feet
and gently urges me
To try
To take a step, to never look back
To leave the past forever behind
I've only to try
Now that I'm a little bit older
I'm aware of a path I should take
And I can't count on having a partner
to come and ease my way
I've grown tired of needing excuses
always looking forward to the day
where I can touch my own freedom and choices
with no need to explain
no, no need to explain
To try
To take a step, to never look back
To leave the past forever behind
I've only to try
Try (only just to try)
Some things given, and some things are taken away
Ya we let go of some things
You've got to try
Some things given and
Some things taken
Some things left behind
I've only to try
