One Way Ticket (Because I Can)

Standing on the border

Looking out into the great unknown

I can feel my heart beating faster as I step out on my own

There's a new horizon and the promise of favorable wind

I'm heading out tonight, traveling light

I'm gonna start all over again

And buy a one-way ticket on a westbound train

See how far I can go (Because I can)

I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain

And talk to someone I don't know (Because I can)

I will face the world around me

Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go

And I will fall in love again

Because I can

Gonna climb the mountain

And look the eagle in the eye

I won't let fear clip my wings and tell me how high I can fly

How could I have ever believed

That love had to be so blind

When freedom was waiting down at the station?

All I had to do was make up my mind

And buy a one-way ticket on a westbound train

See how far I can go (Because I can)

I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain

And talk to someone I don't know (Because I can)

I will face the world around me

Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go

And I will fall in love again

Because I can

Well, I have walked through the fire

And crawled on my knees

Through the valley of the shadow of doubt

Then the truth came shining like a light on me

And now I can see my way out

I'm gonna buy a one-way ticket on a westbound train

See how far I can go (Because I can)

I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain

And talk to someone I don't know

I'm gonna buy a one-way ticket on a westbound train

Gonna have my breakfast with some pink champagne

I'm gonna sail the ocean, gonna spread my wings

Gonna climb that mountain, gonna do everything
