After a while you learn the subltle difference
between holding a hand, and chaining a soul,

And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and
company doesn't mean security.

And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts
and presents aren't promises.

And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up
and your eyes open, with the grace of an a dult;
not the grief of a child,

And you learn to build all your roads on today because
tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans,

And future's have a way of falling down in midflight.

And you learn that you really can endure...that you
really are strong, and you really do have worth,


After a while you learn that even sunshine burns
if you get too much.

And you learn and you learn with everygoodbye you learn.

So plant you're own garden and decorate your own soul,
stop waiting for someone else to bring you flowers.
