Oh, this road is long, this road is wide,
It takes more than luck to last the ride,
It takes strength and it takes courage to survive,
And did someone ever say to you,
“There’s nothing bound in thought you cannot do?”
Well, I’ve seen some things but not all of them came true.

So I don’t want to be the last, I don’t want to be the first,
Don’t want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,
And I don’t want to be afraid, don’t want to look away,
I’m learning to breathe,
No I don’t want to be the last, I don’t want to be the first,
I just need a hope and a light to follow,
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,
I’m learning to breathe on my own.

And I know a man who lost his wife,
This is the way he chooses to describe his life,
He says, “If I think too much, I find there’s just a hole,”
But before she went, she left a son,
He says, “Dad, you’re not the only one,
Maybe love is just a requiem for the soul…”

So I don’t want to be the last, I don’t want to be the first,
Don’t want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,
And I don’t want to be afraid, don’t want to look away,
I’m learning to breathe,
No I don’t want to be the last, I don’t want to be the first,
I just need a hope and a light to follow,
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,
I’m learning to breathe on my own.

Oh, do you still feel small?
Just a speck of life on an ocean wave,
Does it pull us all?
Does it pull us all?

So I don’t want to be the last, I don’t want to be the first,
Don’t want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,
And I don’t want to be afraid, don’t want to look away,
I’m learning to breathe,
No I don’t want to be the last, I don’t want to be the first,
I just need a hope and a light to follow,
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,
I’m learning to breathe on my own.
