Running Toward the Good Things

I've been standing in the doorway,

Waiting for the perfect sign.

Thinking maybe I should hold back,

Thinking maybe it's not my time.

But every little heartbeat

Whispers something in my ear—

"Life won't wait forever,

You can't keep holding on to fear."

And even though I'm trembling,

I feel a spark begin to rise—

The smallest kind of bravery

Opening my eyes…

I'm running toward the good things,

Toward the sunshine breaking through.

Every step is saying maybe

Life's been waiting for me, too.

I'm letting go of all the shadows

That kept pulling me behind—

I'm running toward the good things,

And I'm finally feeling alive.

I've been caught inside the daydreams,

Worried they would fall apart.

But maybe all the wrong turns

Were guiding me back to my heart.

And now the road is open,

Wide enough for hope to stay—

And something in me knows

I'm ready for the change.

I don't know where it's taking me,

But I feel the moment shine—

A little light is growing,

And it's telling me it's time…

I'm running toward the good things,

Toward the dreams I almost missed.

Every doubt is losing power

Every moment like this.

I'm letting go of all the worries

That kept talking in my mind—

I'm running toward the good things,

And I'm finally feeling alive.

I know the world can shake me,

Try to turn my steps around—

But now the wind is shifting,

And my feet are on the ground.

And if the night grows darker,

I'll keep moving through the storm—

'Cause every hope inside me

Is ready to transform.

I'm running toward the good things,

Toward the light I couldn't see.

Every heartbeat's getting louder

Calling me to who I'll be.

I'm letting go of every shadow

That once held me in the night—

I'm rising up—yeah, rising up—!

I'm running toward the good things,

And it feels so right tonight.
