Had a dream I met a tiny lizard Didn't name them, but they couldn't let me go They'd run up my foot, up my leg, down my arm Whenever I'd put them on the grass below And the books I reference won't give me a hint Why this lizard stared up in my palm Its tail would sting me and break off if I moved too much For their sake and mine, I kept calm When I showed them to all of the people I love They'd climb aboard and they'd explore them too But they always came back to my outreached hand Why they chose me, I didn't have a clue And it first it felt like a blessing That something so small Could love me so much But I looked down my arms, at the palms of my hands And the deep rooted tail stubs which hurt to the touch I thought I was careful (I was being so careful) I was doing what I thought I had to do To keep you from hurting yourself and from hurting me What did I do? Oh what do I do? (Where'd you go? Where'd you go? Are you still on me now? I can feel my heart ache) (Where'd you go? Where'd you go?) Will the tail stubs come out? Did I make a mistake? I don't know (I don't know) (Ooh) It's been a year since I met that tiny lizard And I gave them, a life through a song And I had so much trouble discerning the meaning I was so sure, convinced I was wrong And I sung to myself, and I sung to a stream Shared this moment, my dream, although brief And I must append that despite my small friend The melody would bring me relief (But "I thought I was careful I was being so careful") What everything meant became so clear to see I kept getting tangled with every relation Found a role I could fill so it could fill me ("Where'd you go? Where'd you go?") I convinced myself you were defenseless and small ("Where'd you go? Where'd you go?") I admit to myself, it doesn't matter at all Now I know,(Now I know) My "fight or flight" is broken and I only freeze (Now I know, Now I know) It's okay to let go, practice catch and release (Now I know, Now I know) Close the door behind me, so I can find peace
