Let Me Fall

Josh Groban
Let Me Fall


Let me fall
Let me climb
There’s a moment
when fear
And dreams must collide

Someone I am
Is waiting for courage
The one I want
The one I will become
Will catch me

So let me fall
If I must fall
I won’t heed your warnings
I won’t hear them

Let me fall
If I fall
Though the phoenix may
Or may not rise

I will dance so freely
Holding on to no one
You can hold me only
If you too will fall
Away from all these
Useless fears and chains

Someone I am
Is waiting for my courage
The one I want
The one I will become
Will catch me

So let me fall
If I must fall

I won’t heed your warnings
I won’t hear
Let me fall
If I fall

There’s no reason
To miss this one chance
This perfect moment
Just let me fall

Anyone looking for courage? I've listened to this song for two years and finally appreciate it's message. I love the message that we have to step into the unknown and depend on the person we hope to become to catch us. Relying on the hope there is a place where "fear and dreams must collide." Experiencing freedom from fears and chains.

Tom and I have been discussing plans for our future. There is a fear that surrounds the unknown. It is our desire; however, to leave Gracie a legacy of tried and failed attempts, rather than a stagnant life controlled by fear. It's a lot easier to type this than to live this!
