"Let Me Fall" Josh Groban Lyrics
let me fall
let me climb
there's a moment when fear
and dreams must collide
someone i am
is waiting for courage
the one i want
the one i will become
will catch me
so let me fall
if i must fall
i won't heed your warnings
i won't hear them
let me fall
if i fall
though the phoenix may
or may not rise
i will dance so freely
holding on to no one
you can hold me only
if you too will fall
away from all these
useless fears and chains
someone i am
is waiting for my courage
the one i want
the one i will become
will catch me
so let me fall
if i must fall
i won't heed your warnings
i won't hear
let me fall
if i fall
there's no reason
to miss this one chance
this perfect moment
just let me fall

Thank you shewhofacesspirit for sharing the words to this beautiful melody. I pray to be fluid with the falling into the one i will become.
This morning I drew a Rune after asking, What's next? in relationship to my apprenticeship journey moving forward with the weekend's experience. It was the blank rune, The Unknowable. To paraphrase,this is the rune of total trust (exactly the struggle I was in last week)and should be taken as evidence of your most immediate contact with your own true destiny which, time and again, rises like the phoenix from the ashes of what we call fate. This rune may bring to the surface our deepest fears and yet our highest good, our truest possibilities and our all fertile dreams are held within that blankness. The blank rune often calls for no less an act of courage than an empty-handed leap into the void. May I leap with grace.
Thank you for reminding us of these words and putting them out for other people. They made me cry again... It is such a precious, intimate moment for each one of us. One so hard to put into words, one so difficult to share about. And yet it is a story of love and hope and birth. I wish those words comfort and inspire many, and feel like loving arms able to open up and let a child go and walk her way, even if she falls...
Just on a side note:
This song & music were originally used by the Cirque du Soleil for one of their show. And guess what: flying acrobats performed on it!... I found it interesting as this last WE, several of us saw the metaphor of acrobats / trapezists when we were asked who we would be if we were in a circus. So let us fall and fly...
