There's a lot of ground to cover One foot and then the other
On my way, my way to somewhere new
A few false thoughts, can you forgive this
Cautious heart and just bear with it
While it does what I thought it couldn't do
I could go back to the old place
And write your name on every blank page
But it's a story now, just a story now
It's the kind of thing that you say
You say no need to look behind me
That I can keep you here beside me
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
It isn't perfect, but it might be
You dip your toe and then you paddle all
Before you swim the channel
Thought I'd never make it, but I might
Or I could go back to the old place
And write your name on every blank page
But it's a story now, just a story now
It's the kind of thing that you say
You say no need to look behind me
That I can keep you here beside me
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
It isn't perfect, but it might be
La la la la, la la la la la
Mmm, I'm treading lightly
Thinking slightly
It just might be, it just might be
Treading lightly
Thinking slightly
It just might be, it just might be
It just might be, it just might be
Oh, I could go back to the old place
And write your name on every blank page
But it's a story now, just a story now
It's the kind of thing that you say
You say no need to look behind me
That I can keep you here beside me
Mmm, I'm treading lightly
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
It isn't perfect, but it might be
La la la la, la la la la la
Like it might be, yeah
Like it might be
La la la la, la la la la la
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Might be, might be, might be
