I pretend you sit in front of me.
   I know this conversation well (well)
   Back and forth between reality
   And what I?ve come to believe is all I have
  
   Words are just a form of emptiness
   When there?s no one there to hear (me)
   I see the bottom of this empty glass
   It?s staring back and I can feel the pain
  
   I see tomorrow in your eyes
  
   I?m learning to cry
   I?ll take it in stride
   I?m learning to fly
   I?m learning to hold my head up high
  
   This fascination with what might have been
   Always seems to leave me cold
   I?ve gone so far and now I?m back again
   The need to be (feel) alive is all I know
  
   I see tomorrow in your eyes
  
   I?m learning to cry
   I?ll take it in stride (after all these years)
   I?m learning to fly
   I?m learning to hold my head up high
  
   I Will hold up my hands
   When I don?t think I can
   There?s a peace right outside
   In the light
  
   I?m learning to cry
   I?ll take it in stride (after all these years)
   I?m learning to fly
   I?m learning to hold my head up high
  
   I?m learning to cry
   Don?t keep it inside (learn to face my fears)
   I?m learning to try
   I?m learning to hold my head up high
  
   I?m learning
   I?m learning
