Erin O`donnell Wide Wide World Lyrics

Wide Wide World Lyrics

I wanted to be safe 

I wanted to get by

I almost lost my edge

I could not fathom why

But You would never let me

Your dang'rous side won out

'Cause You knew what I wanted

I wanted to get out



Chorus:

It's a wide wide world 

And I almost lost You in it

It's a chance to live

But it almost passed me by

It's an open door 

To live for something better

'Cause You keep leading me

Into the wide wide world



Did Moses want to turn back

After crossing the red sea?

I bet that he got nervous

I wish that I could see

'Cause I've got the shakes all over

And I want to turn around

But I'm twice as scared of missing

The good that can be found



Chorus



'Cause You are past the borders

Somewhere off the map

Of what feels comfortable

And I am so grateful for that



It's adventure that we want 

And it's what we'll fin'lly get

There's nothing safe about You

But sometimes I forget 

So lead me into the wide world

Don't let me miss my chance

'Cause I'll blink and it'll be over

And I won't pass here again
