Rapunzel
Lisa Brokop Lyrics

Maybe I'm Rapunzel and i should let my hair down
Perhaps I have been keeping myself locked up, like Rapunzel in her tower, and it's time for me to open up and be free.

Maybe I'll just fly out of this window and ride the wind
Maybe I'll take a leap of faith and embrace new possibilities, like soaring through the sky on the wind.

Maybe I'm a bluebird and this is Happy as I'm ever gonna be
Perhaps I am content in my current state, finding joy and happiness in the simple pleasures, just like a bluebird.

If heaven's not the remnant of some magic carpet
If heaven is not some fantastical illusion or escape, but something more grounded and real.

Then It's the fading daylight on the blue bonnets
It could be the ethereal beauty of nature, like the soft fading light on a field of blue bonnets.

So I think I'll pay attention
Therefore, I will consciously observe and appreciate my surroundings, taking in the wonders of life.

To the beauty all around me that I see
To the enchanting and captivating beauty I witness in the world.

Am I carryin' the weight of broken dreams
Am I burdened by the disappointments and shattered aspirations of the past?

Or am I standin' on a pedestal That lifts me to the stars?
Or am I in a position of great strength and self-worth, elevating me to new heights and possibilities?

I accept the things I cannot change
I acknowledge and embrace the aspects of life that are beyond my control.

My weakness but my life's made stronger By a heart of heavy stone
My vulnerability and flaws have actually made me stronger and more resilient, like a heart that has been hardened by life's challenges.

Maybe bliss is only in the minds of fools and lovers
Perhaps true happiness and contentment can only be found in the minds of those who are willing to take risks and deeply love.

I have been a fool so maybe I've at last discovered
I have made mistakes and acted foolishly, but these experiences have led me to a newfound understanding or realization.

What it means to really love you
I have come to comprehend the true essence and significance of loving another person wholeheartedly.

And to let you love me as I truly am
And to allow myself to be loved by you for who I truly am, without pretense or masks.

I have let my guard down like Rapunzel's golden hair
I have relinquished my defenses and allowed myself to be vulnerable, just like when Rapunzel lowers her long golden hair to let others in.

Come to me at midnight and we will Taste the cold wild air
Come to me in the darkness of midnight, and together, we will experience the exhilarating and untamed essence of life.

I've cast aside my fears for you You can leave or you can take my hand
I have bravely let go of my fears and insecurities because of my love for you. Now, it's your choice whether to stay or join me on this journey.

Am I carryin' the weight of broken dreams
Am I still burdened by the weight of unfulfilled dreams and aspirations?

Or am I standin' on a pedestal That lifts me to the stars?
Or am I embracing my worth and standing confidently, allowing myself to reach for the stars?

I accept the things I cannot change
I choose to accept and make peace with the aspects of life that are beyond my control.

My weakness but my life's made stronger
My vulnerabilities and imperfections have actually contributed to making me a stronger individual.

By a heart of heavy stone
Through the lessons, hardships, and challenges I've faced, my heart has become resilient, like a heavy stone.
