Kid let me tell you how it's gonna be
Starting the moment you're on your own feet
You'll be walking so proud and then you'll fall
Use everything that you can to get back up again
You'll learn the best lesson of all

Go falling in love, kid you'll fall down some more
Blind ambition won't even the score
But don't let the shame come and hide you away
Do your best just to feel it
The pain makes you real
If you let it pass through and away

Kid I was once a child just like you
Wishin' to skip pain I had to go through
But there's no way around the beat of your heart
Listen to follow it's sound
It'll pull you back up kid, the same way it did from the start

The longer you're here, the more you may find
The road growing steeper the further you climb
Give yourself time to gather your breath
Then watch the summit appear 
When you heed that old voice sayin' one foot in front of the next

Kid I was once a child just like you
Through the risin' and fallin' learned you gotta be true
And leave all the questions to Heaven above
And when you get to where I am, you'll see it so clearly
The goal of your journey
Was love
