Baby Steps (I Don't Cry) Lyrics

Well you've been gone for months now

And it's my senior year

Your school's in my email saying "you belong here"

I don't hesitate once before clicking delete

This is the only choice in my life that's easy

And I try not to think about anything too long

I haven't been dwelling on all that went wrong

My stomach don't drop when I hear that song

I finally think that I've been moving on

You didn't love me, and you know that's alright

And God, oh I loved you

But it wasn't my time

I went through every phase, it gave me bluer eyes

Slowly made ready for my life to be mine

You don't remember half of July

So I'll force it forgotten, you're not a part of my life

I take a win where I can

Even took a six-month goodbye

But I can finally say

Now I don't cry

I don't think anymore

I trade my personality

To be a little more like the girl you've been loving after me

I pack the photos in the ex-boyfriend box under the bed

It's hard to come to terms, but I've started to accept

And I kept my composure, wrote you a thousand songs

But I finally think that I've been moving on

You didn't love me, and you know that's alright

And God, oh I loved you

But it wasn't my time

I went through every phase, it gave me bluer eyes

Slowly made ready for my life to be mine

Barely made it through any day past July

I hated knowing that you're not a part of my life

Spent six months lying, lying that I'm fine

But I can finally say

Now I don't lie

I take a win where I can, and it took six months to try

But I can finally say

I don't cry
