After a while you learn The subtle difference between Holding a hand and chaining a soul And you learn love doesnt mean leaning And company doesnt always mean security You learn that people will lie, theyll change their minds And youll accept not everything you hold in your hand is concrete or under your control And you begin to learn That kisses arent contracts And presents arent promises And you begin to accept your defeats With your head up and your eyes ahead With the grace of a woman And not the grief of a child And you learn To build all your roads on today Because tomorrows ground Is too uncertain for plans And futures have a way Of falling down in mid-flight After a while you learn That even sunshine burns if you get too much So you plant your own garden And decorate your own soul Instead of waiting For someone to bring you flowers And you learn That you really can endure That you really are strong And you really do have worth And you learn and you learn With every goodbye you learn And you finally give up You say no more, Im done Im finished And you decide in the end The only person you can trust is yourself So you mask your hurt with a false grin And work yourself until youre too busy to think Because after the day is done Its best to not remember a thing
