Lyric

I cleared the table

Late last night

Found old receipts

And notes I'd saved

A list I made

Last January

Half of it happened

Half of it changed

I almost threw

The whole thing away

Then folded it once

And put it in a drawer

Not everything

Needs an ending

Before you start

Something more

I used to need

The whole road

Before I'd take

The first step

Now I know

That's not

How life works

This is the next chapter

No title yet

No final page

I don't know

Where I'm going

And for once

That's okay

I can leave

Some spaces empty

I can write them

On the way

This is the next chapter

So I'm turning

The page

I kept the key

From my old place

Changed the picture

Beside my bed

Some things came

With me this far

Some things were better

Left instead

There's a train

At seven forty

I haven't bought

The ticket yet

Maybe I'll take it

Maybe I won't

I like that

I can choose

I don't need

A perfect answer

To know

I'm ready now

This is the next chapter

No promise that

I'll get it right

Maybe I'll change

My mind again

Maybe I'll stay

Out all night

Maybe somewhere

I've never been

Will start to feel

Like mine

This is the next chapter

And I think

It's time

To every version

I have been

Thank you

For getting me here

You don't have to know

What happens next

I know

Ready?

Yeah

I think I am

This is the next chapter

No map folded

In my hand

No need to be

Who I was

No need to follow

The old plan

There are mornings

I haven't woken to

There are streets

I haven't walked

There are things

I'll change my mind about

And days

I'll do nothing at all

This is the next chapter

Not a finish

Not a start

Just another page

That's waiting

And a life

That's still becoming mine

I don't know

What happens next

That's why

I'm turning the page
