"One Way Ticket (Because I Can)" by LeAnn Rimes (Judy Rodman/Keith Hinton)

1st Verse

Standin' on the border
Lookin' out into the great unknown
I can feel my heart beatin' faster
As I step out on my own
There's a new horizon
And a promise of a favorable wind
I'm headin' out tonight
Travelin' light
I'm gonna start all over again

Chorus

And buy a one-way ticket on a West-bound train
To see how far I can go (because I can)
I'm gonna go out dancin' in the pourin' rain
Talk to someone I don't know (because I can)
I will face the world around me
Knowin' that I'm strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can

2nd Verse

Go to climb a mountain
And look the eagle in the eye
I won't let fear clip my wings
And tell me how high I can fly
How could I have ever believed
That love had to be so blind
When freedom was 'a waitin'
Down at the station
All I had to do was make up my mind

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

I have walked through the fire and crawled on my knees
Through the valley of the shadow of doubt
And the truth came shinin' like a light on me
And now I can see my way out

Tag Chorus

I'm gonna buy a one-way ticket on a West-bound train
To see how far I can go (because I can)
I'm gonna go out dancin' in the pourin' rain
Talk to someone I don't know
I'm gonna buy a one-way ticket on a West-bound train
Gonna have my breakfast with pink champagne
Gonna sail the ocean, gonna spread my wings
Gonna climb that mountain, gonna do everything
Hey, hey
