stodolak & kerr - ready to try lyrics

[holly]
when i was small i thought that all adults had handbooks that would tell them all they needed to know
a recipe for birthday cakes
a remedy when your heart breaks
a guide to help avoid mistakes

then i got old and no one told me what a dumpster fire growing up would turn out to be
my cakes are always semi+stale
my breakups hit the richter scale
i majored in mistakes at yale

i never check the directory
i’m often losing my way
but i’ve got a forward trajectory
no time for yеsterday

a clean slate
a clеar plate
no more running when times get tough
a fresh start
open heart
and a chance to prove you are enough
face your fear and choose to claim it
see the picture then re+frame it
no longer just standing by
i’m ready to try
while all my peers have used their years to be productive with their reproductive feats on display
i’ve got a cookbook just for chicken wings
a violin with broken strings
and five golden rings

but every mistake is a lesson learned
a chance to start over new
this seasoned traveler has now returned
i know what i have to do

embrace
this old place
coming home is not a defeat
be strong
you belong
though reception might feel bittersweet
take a breath and count to ten
pick yourself back up again
kiss apprehension goodbye
i’m ready to try

[charlie, spoken]
nicky, come on. we’re booked solid and short+staffed as it is. no, i understand. you too

[holly, spoken]
hey, stranger
[charlie, spoken]
where were you this time?

[holly, spoken]
seattle

[charlie, spoken]
and how is the emerald city?

[holly, spoken]
it was…

[charlie, spoken]
was?

[holly, spoken]
there’s no place like home

[charlie, spoken]
so things didn’t work out with hunky hat historian?

[holly, spoken]
turns out, he wasn’t very cap+tivating

[charlie, spoken]
wow. how’d he take the news? … you didn’t letter and leave, did you?
[holly, spoken]
my fear of conflict is crippling

[charlie, spoken]
no kidding

[holly, spoken]
but i’m back now. for good!

[charlie, spoken]
we’ll see

[holly, spoken]
where’s your holiday spirit?!

[charlie]
that cute smirk
it won’t work
it’s the same thing every year
you say
you will stay
then you turn around and disappear

[holly & charlie]
take a chance, you won’t be sorry i don’t believe it
help me write a different story i can’t conceive it
time to simply you’ll never
to clip my wings and leave the sky clip your wings and leave the sky

[holly]
i’m ready
i’m ready
to try
