Catch It Now

Many a day I spent hiding underneath my sheets

Praying the light could find me still

Just a glimpse of the world that was outside my bed

Oh, it seemed to work so well

But me, I never fit and I didn't try - no I just quit

And I taught myself to fake a smile

But, oh, true joy it came when I looked out my window

Pane and saw - it ain’t been rainin' for a while

So, I ain't waitin' for it

Gonna go catch it now - I've been waiting for so long

For someone to show me how

I'm gonna go catch it now

Many a year I spent turning my back on what I know, in my heart, to be right

Maybe it was lust, maybe it was fear

Maybe it was something worse, my dear

Maybe I was just too tired to fight

Though it might seem frightening

If I fall in love I won’t tread lightly, no, not anymore

I’m gonna jump right in

And I may not live a righteous way, but I'll try to

Never hide my soul away from

Anyone ever again

So, I ain't waitin' for it

Gonna go catch it now - I've been waiting for so long

For someone to show me how

I'm gonna go catch it now

All I saw was all of me -

Scattered 'round in piles of ashes on my old streets

I saw who I was - where I've been - who I am

And who I'm wanting to be

So, I ain't waitin' for it

Gonna go catch it now - I've been waiting for so long

For someone to show me how

I'm gonna go catch it now
