I think you know me
You don’t owe me
A second of your day
You could save me
From myself
My shadow keeps getting in the way
I carried my friend
I carry him now
Across the Brooklyn Bridge
Through Central Park
Down by the Hudson
Helped me raise him
That’s what you did
I’m learning how to love
I’m taking each day and living life
I wanted to win everything
When I was young
Now I’m learning how to love
I talk with you over coffee
You eat cake you’re such a sweet tooth
I put my arm around your shoulder
You’ll understand when you’re older
Overlooking Central Park
Sunsets on fire
I can rest easy now
I’m like a bird flying higher
