I know you're afraid I'll lose Jesus
And I'll choose all the wrong kind of friends
But I've gotta find my own reason for living
But I can believe it in the end

If I crawl on my knees through the heartache
Of the mess I've made all alone
Don't come around here to rescue me too soon
I need to get through on my own

Let me fall just one time
Cause I'm tryin to learn how to fly
Let me make my own mistakes
Cause it's hope that I'm hopin' to find
Let me try, let me try
Let me try

If I lay in the arms of a stranger
And I dance to close to the ledge
Don't be afraid it's because I don't love you
I just need to see life at the edge

Let me fall just one time
Cause I'm tryin to learn how to fly
Let me cry once or twice
Cause freedom, it comes at a price
Let me try, let me try
Let me try

You gave me beautiful wings that are strong
Just believe now that I can fly
All of the love that you gave me
I'll carry it with me
And keep it alive, keep it alive

Oh, let me fall just one time
Cause I'm tryin to learn how to fly
Let me make my own mistakes
Cause it's hope that I'm hopin', I'm hopin' to find
Let me try, oh let me try
Oh, let me try

Oh, let me try
