It's been a long way down I'm still learning to fall I probably held him up too high Higher than a man was meant to fly I thought he'd always be the rock But that all died the day my daddy walked And time still holds the pain But I won't lose my faith It's been a long way down I'm slowly letting go And so I'm stronger now But somewhere in my soul I know I'm running scared Trying to get where to where I'm going And I don't worry at all I'm still learning to fall Back when I was just nineteen Even God took my best friend from me Won't the summer turn so cold And now I'll never see his life unfold And time still holds the pain But I won't lose my faith It's been a long way down I'm slowly letting go And so I'm stronger now But somewhere in my soul I know I'm running scared Trying to get where to where I'm going And I don't worry at all I'm still learning to fall The weight I carry I hold on my own I may be broken but I'm not alone I don't want to walk again before I crawl I'm still learning to fall Learning to fall It's been a long way down I'm slowly letting go And so I'm stronger now But somewhere in my soul I know I'm running scared Trying to get where to where I'm going And I don't worry at all I'm still learning to fall And I don't want to walk before I crawl I'm still learning to fall
