Decisions

Don't just go from one nest to the next
Mama said to me
It's not where you go or where you left
It's the flying in-between

She said be sure to touch the sky
Don't put your dreams up on a shelf
Right now you're lost inside his eyes
I made the same mistake myself, oh, oh

Am I in love? Decision
Am I too young? Decision
I know my life has just begun
Does he set me free? Decision
Or put me in chains? Decision
When did my life get rearranged?

Do I hold on? Do I let go?
I know I can't escape tomorrow
Do I live for him? Decision
Or live for today? Decisions
Suddenly the sky looks far away

I can see the wheels turn in his mind
The way he looks at me
He says our kids will have my eyes
And what a mother I would be

Does this all have to move so fast?
Can I just take it day by day?
Am I building something that will last?
Or am I just running away?

Am I in love? Decision
Am I too young? Decision
I know my life has just begun
Does he set me free? Decision
Or put me in chains? Decision
When did my life get rearranged?

Do I hold on? Do I let go?
I know I can't escape tomorrow
Do I live for him? Decision
Or live for today? Decision
Suddenly the sky looks far away
Far away, far away

Do I wanna go from being
Somebody's daughter to
Somebody's wife to
Somebody's mother?
I need my own life

I thought my mother's life turned out as planned
But I never knew
Now that I'm grown I understand
All the things she longed to do

I've got to soar above the clouds
But I just can't leave him behind
I've got to have it all somehow
What is it I'm trying to find?

Am I in love? Decision
Am I too young? Decision
I know my life has just begun
Does he set me free? Decision
Or put me in chains? Decision
When did my life get rearranged?

Do I hold on? Do I let go?
I know I can't escape tomorrow
Can I live for him? Decision
And live for today? Decision
Suddenly the sky looks far away
Decision, decision

Suddenly the sky looks far away
Decision, decision
Decision, decision
Decision, decision
Far away
