one way ticket (because i can)

standing on the border

looking out into the great unknown

i can feel my heart beating faster as i step out on my own

there's a new horizon and the promise of favorable wind

i'm heading out tonight

traveling light

i'm gonna start all over again

and buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train

see how far i can go

i'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain

and talk to someone i don't know

i will face the world around me

knowing that i'm strong enough to let you go

and i will fall in love again

because i can

gonna climb the mountain

and look the eagle in the eye

i won't let fear clip my wings and tell me how high i can fly

how could i have ever believed

that love had to be so blind

when freedom was waiting

down at the station

all i had to do was make up my mind

and buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train

see how far i can go

i'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain

and talk to someone i don't know

i will face the world around me

knowing that i'm strong enough to let you go

and i will fall in love again

because i can

well

i have walked through the fire

and crawled on my knees through the valley of the shadow of doubt

then the truth came shining like a light on me and now i can see my way out

i'm gonna buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train

see how far i can go

i'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain

and talk to someone i don't know

i'm gonna buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train

gonna have my breakfast with some pink champagne

i'm gonna sail the ocean

i'm gonna spread my wings

i'm gonna climb that mountain

gonna do everything.
