For The First Time

(Album: Weights & Wings - 2011)

Trouble finds me without warning
Standing in the light of morning
Wanna grab my things and hit the road
Must have done it a thousand times
All the leaving that would make things right
I've gone so far there's nowhere left to go

For the first time
I'm changing my mind
And I'm gonna stay
You opened my eyes
Finally realized
I'm what's in the way

I never knew when I quit bending
I hit the bottom but I keep on digging
Now I'm running out of things to take the pain
Here I stand with my white flag waving
Hoping you can believe what I'm saying
I was wrong I don't wanna stay the same

For the first time
Changing my mind
And I'm gonna stay (I'm gonna stay)
You opened my eyes
Finally realized
I'm what's in the way
What's in the way

For the first time
I'm changing my mind
And I'm gonna stay (I'm gonna stay)
You opened my eyes
Finally realized
I'm what's in the way
What's in the way
