lyrics

i already miss your harmonies
already miss it all, oh, please
i feel so scared, please
am i ready
please don’t ask me if
i think i’m ready
i already feel it changing fast
so many things will be our last
am i prepared, please
am i ready
please just tell me how
you think i’m ready

but i know what i’ve got
in the back of my mind
something sweet that you taught
that i won’t leave behind, no
and i know your eyes
cause they look just like mine
and i just realized
that i think i’ll be fine, oh

because you gave me

music
you gave me dance
i don’t know how i’m gonna do this
but you make me think i stand a chance
music
and everything
you make me laugh more than i should
and you taught me how to sing
and you taught me how to sing
and you taught me how to sing

we all know i’m not the best with change
not being with you sounds so strange
i’ll be alone
will i be ready
please don’t ask me if
i think i’m ready
i’m afraid that i will never be
what you both seem to see in me
am i just dreaming
that i’m ready
please just won’t you promise
me i’m ready

but i know what i’ve got
in the back of my mind
something sweet that you taught
that i won’t leave behind, no
and i know your eyes
cause they look just like mine
and i just realized
that i think i’ll be fine, oh

because you gave me

music
you gave me dance
i don’t know how i’m gonna do this
but you make me think i stand a chance
music
and everything
you make me laugh more than i should
and you taught me how to sing
and you taught me how to sing
and you taught me how to sing

and i sing for all the
ways you made me come alive
i sing for all the
ways you make me feel that i’ve
been someone
worthy of the melodies of you
i sing for all
the things i never would’ve known that i could do

because it led to

music
you gave me dance
i don’t know how i’m gonna do this
but you make me think i stand a chance
music
and everything
you make me laugh more than i should
and you taught me how to sing
and you taught me how to sing
and you taught me how to sing
you gave me music
you gave me light
i don’t know how i’m gonna do this
but you make me think it’s worth the fight
music
and everything
you make me hope more than you know
and you taught me how to sing
and you taught me how to sing
and you taught me how to sing
