lyrics

I've got a secret that I seldom share
Just one of many that I keep
I never learned to ride a bicycle
Oh god, what will they think of me?

I watched kids fly by
I watched years fly, too
Each year I swear I'll try
But never do

I never learned to ride a bicycle
It always seemed like such a risk
If I should fall I risk my livelihood
What good am I with shattered wrists?

I watched kids fly by
And the days fly too
Oh, I'm dying to try
But what's the use?

I saw a posted flyer the other day
"Come learn to ride! First lesson free."
I called the number and reserved four spaces
One for my shame, one for my pride, one for my fear
And one for me

And now we ride together happily
