Lyrics

Talking with Strangers

Today, I talked to a semi-stranger
A girl that I sorta know
But every encounter at the corner grocery
Holds potential for our relationship to grow
And half of my brain was totally afraid
That she'd hate me, never want to see me again
And half of my brain was equally afraid
That she'd like me, want to be my friend

I am learning to love
I am learning to let myself be loved
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?

Yesterday, I was anxious and alone
So I called a friend to make me feel ok
And for a moment, I found myself
Angry at him for offering help
When I should have just been grateful
For what he gave

I am learning to love
I am learning to let myself be loved
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?

Be gentle with me
I might not be ready
Be gentle with me
I might not be ready

I am learning to love
I am learning to let myself be loved
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?
How did I miss this lesson when I was young?
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
