lyrics

10) WHERE TO BEGIN

When I share stories, I get choked up,
There’ve been wars and far too many loves
On which I’ve given up,
Beautiful people, beautiful places,
And there’s heartache
To go with each one of their faces,

I always laugh when people say I’m brave,
I’ve been scared since I was born,
And I’ll remain so til the grave,
They have their reasons to think I’m strong,
But I’m the only one who knows,
and I know damn well that they’re wrong,

And there’s a great amount of people who have let me in,
Each one’s been an angel but not one without their sin,
And I don’t know where to begin, so I just listen to the wind,

And when I’m quiet I hear their stories too,
Everybody loves and suffers, that much I know is true,
We’re all broken, but still we’re tough,
We search hard for the reasons when the going gets rough,

And folks want to know what are my plans,
Well I’ve made some in my head,
But I have come to understand,
What’s ‘round the corner is never sure,
To admit I’ve no idea is more sensible and pure,

And so I take what I have learned and I hand out my confessions,
And I walk a little farther though it’s not with clear direction,
When I don’t know where to begin, I just listen to the wind,

I’m not immune to stormy weather,
I’m not convinced by getting older,
That I am getting better,
What have I learned in all this time,
That is worth something real
Outside these melodies and rhymes,

And still they come to me from places that I can not quite explain,
And they don’t solve any problems but they help to ease the pain,
And I don’t know where to begin, so I just listen to the wind.
