Half Steps

If you're packing up your bags, throw away the tags

If you're timid when you speak, give it a week

If you're looking on your shelf, you won't find yourself

Once you've bought enough to wear, put your heart in there

Bring your socks and bring your shoes, so you can travel loose

Pack your notebook and your pen, call me when you land

Bring your toothbrush and your paste, so you can keep good taste

Once you have stuff for your hair, put your heart in there

Triple rooms and single beds, you can lay your head

Continents and hallways, you can leave today
