Lyrics Josh Woodward - Together On Our Own

I learned to walk when I was one
Beneath the Oklahoma sun
And from that day, I started walking my own route
I learned to read when I was two
And I believed it all was true
Too young to fill my mind with questions and with doubt

I made made my first friend when I was three
But by four, he moved away so very far from me
At five I wondered why, people live and people die
Why the things I loved just slowly slipped away from me
And only stars remained the same

Cold night, starlight
We are not alone
Cold night, starlight
We are not alone
We're together on our own

I said goodbye when I was ten
To Santa Claus and all his friends
I had to leave those childish stories all behind
But when they told me god was real
I just couldn't help but feel
This burning question that was tugging on my mind

By the time I was eleven, I had given up on heaven
And everything was falling into place
I kept my mouth shut, so I wouldn't rock the boat
Cuz a kid who's fallen overboard is too ashamed to float
And still the stars remained the same

[Chorus]

I learned to walk, when I was one
Without a crutch to lean upon
I had to relearn everything
My legs were weak without the wings

But I'm stronger now, my mind is free
Controlling my own destiny
When I write the final chapter
That's the last you'll read of me
There's not a finish line / But there is nothing that I fear

Today I went to see a friend
His days are almost at an end
The doctors say he's got a month or two to live
He called to me there from his bed
And with a weakening voice he said
"If there's no god, then tell me what's the point"

I didn't have the answer, so I looked at him and said
You were always giving love, you could have taken it instead
This journey may be pointless, but at least I sure can say
You made it better for the rest of us you crossed along the way
And still the stars remain the same

[Chorus]
