Trying to recall
What was it I learned
A lesson I swore I'd never forget
To find the place in me
Where I knew I was all
It was what it was meant to be

Sheltered this fragile heart
Remember the hurt to shield
And swore never to give in to the need
To know that place in me
Where I'd find a way
To know that I only needed me

But you've thrown me off this course
This highway made of solitary tears
Looking back and front and
The side view mirrors, checking my back
But it's you I find waiting
Like a prince on a thrown

You're my morning light
My nighttime lullaby
It can't be, this crazy thing
So I'm telling you now, I'm walking
I'm walking away to where I begin again
I know you won't look back to find
Where I might end up

But you are the roadblock waiting for me
Baby, I'm walking away now
Do you see, make sure you take a look now
Because you aren't going to find
me knocking on your door again
This heart is going to live on its own again
Baby, don't look at me like that

Cause you've thrown me off this course
This highway made of solitary tears
Looking back and front and
The side view mirrors, checking my back
But it's you I find waiting
Like a prince on a thrown
You're my morning light
My nighttime lullaby
