You Can't Reach What's in Front of You

I've been holding on to memories To dreams that never came to be Clinging to the past like it could last Afraid to set my heart free But the weight of yesterday Keeps pulling me away From the future waiting for me It's time to let the past be You can't reach what's in front of you Until you let go of what's behind you You can't find the light of a new day If you're lost in the shadows of yesterday Every step forward feels like a leap But I know it's the faith I need to keep Letting go of what I used to know To embrace the love that's yet to grow So I'll shed the tears I've cried Leave regrets behind With open arms, I'll face the sun A new chapter's just begun You can't reach what's in front of you Until you let go of what's behind you You can't find the light of a new day If you're lost in the shadows of yesterday There's a future waiting, just beyond the pain A horizon calling out my name With every breath, I'll find my way Leaving the past, embracing today You can't reach what's in front of you Until you let go of what's behind you You can't find the light of a new day If you're lost in the shadows of yesterday So I'll take a step, and then one more Leaving behind what came before With a heart that's open wide I'll find my place on the other side
