[Intro] Nobody had to say the words I learned them from what happened next [Verse 1] The room got warmer when I got it right Things got easier when I needed less I knew how quickly laughter changed the air I noticed what brought people close So I watched And I learned [Verse 2] Praise could make the whole day lighter A mistake could follow me home Being useful gave me somewhere to stand Being easy left less to get wrong Nobody had to say it out loud I learned it from what happened next [Refrain] Get it right Need a little less Make them laugh Be the one they need Different answers Same small question What works here? [Verse 3] Maybe that was never what they meant Maybe nobody knew the lesson forming But little by little Moment by moment I learned what version of me worked [Outro] And once you learn what works You use it Then you use it again Until one day You get very good at becoming it
