[Verse 1]
Don't hold me down
I'm not supposed to feel like I've been
Holding on for something else
I kept my feet on the ground
Too scared to see how far this could take me
If I ever leave the ground
There'd be nowhere to go but down

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll take these chances, just like the way you took a chance on me
I don't have any answers, but I've been places and I've seen things

[Chorus]
I love the way I said goodbye
This is my exit and your time to shine
So let me go, stop the search cause I found what I'm looking for
Just like my favorite scene from my favorite movie
The world was spinning underneath my feet
But this ain't no Hollywood ending

[Verse 2]
Tell me about my future cause I already know my past
Let's make up for all the time we've missed
So let's just get this over with
This is just one more mistake I have to live with
So please forgive the escape from the world I hate

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll take these chances, just like the way you took a chance on me
I don't have any answers, but i've been places and I've seen things
I've been places and I've seen things

[Chorus]
I love the way I said goodbye
This is my exit and your time to shine
So let me go, stop the search cause I found what I'm looking for
Just like my favorite scene from my favorite movie
The world was spinning underneath my feet
But this ain't no Hollywood ending

[Bridge]
Blame it on me, just blame it on me
Don't you know I'm coming clean?
Yeah I'll take the heat
Oh, you're just about as honest as a liar could ever be

[Chorus]
I love the way I said goodbye
This is my exit and your time to shine
So let me go, stop the search cause I found what I'm looking for
Just like my favorite scene from my favorite movie
The world was spinning underneath my feet
But this ain't no Hollywood ending
