Learning to Fall

Martina McBride · Martina [2003]

I was alone in the dark

Never let down my guard

Closed the curtain on my heart

So the world could not see

All the demons in me

Told myself I was free



Then you showed me how wrong I could be



Now I'm standing on a mountain of rubble

That once was a wall

Took years to build around me

And you came along

And you tore it down

Like it was nothing at all

Now it's a little scary

Learning to fall



When you looked in my eyes

Past the fear and false pride

You saw goodness inside

I can't believe how I feel

I believe love is real

And I'm ready to heal



You show me how right I can be



Now I'm standing on a mountain of rubble

That once was a wall

Took years to build around me

And you came along

And you tore it down

Like it was nothing at all

Now it's a little scary

Learning to fall



I was holding on, now I'm letting go

I was holding on, now I'm letting go

I was holding on, now I'm letting go



Now I'm standing on a mountain of rubble

That once was a wall

Took years to build around me

And you came along

And you tore it down

Like it was nothing at all

Now it's a little scary

Learning to fall
