Lucy Spraggan - 23 Lyrics

It's taken 23 years to realise
We don't know what's coming next
There's foolish dreams and impractical fears
Between everything and nothing left

It's taken 23 weeks of traveling free
Taking on this globe alone
It took ink in flesh and sunburnt necks
To be happy in the skin I own

I don't have a clue
I'm learning to be free
I'm just the same as you
This is all I've learnt to be at 23, at 23

I'll wear your shoes
For the next few miles
If we walk on the same road
The stronger the skin, on our bare feet
The stronger both our souls

I don't have a clue
I'm learning to be free
I'm just the same as you
This is all I've learnt to be at 23, at 23

There'll be winds and bends
And misplaced friends
Getting lost along the way
The one confirmed thing that I've learnt
Is that I won't be 23 again

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, at 23
