Have you been writing
those letters to yourself
Dear Evan Hansen
this is gonna be a good day
and here's why
I started one
Those letters are important honey
They're gonna help you
build your confidence
I guess
Can we try to have
an optimistic outlook huh
Can we buck up just enough
to see the world
won't fall apart
Maybe this year
we decide
We're not giving up
before we've tried
This year
we make a new start
Hey I know
You can go around today
and ask the other kids
to sign your cast
How 'bout that
Perfect
I'm proud of you already
Oh good
Another stellar conversation
for the scrapbook
Another stumble as I'm reaching
for the right thing to say
I'm kinda coming up empty
Can't find my way to you
Does anybody have a map
Anybody maybe happen to know
how the hell to do this
I don't know if you can tell
But this is me
just pretending to know
So where's the map
I need a clue
'Cause the scary truth is
I'm flying blind
And I'm making this up
as I go
It's your senior year Connor
You are not
missing the first day
I already said I'd go tomorrow
He doesn't listen
Look at him
he's probably high
He's definitely high
I don't want you going
to school high Connor
Perfect so then I won't go
Thanks Mom
Another masterful attempt
ends with disaster
Interstate's already jammed
Pour another cup of coffee
And watch it all
crash and burn
Connor finished the milk
It's a puzzle
it's a maze
I tried to steer
through it a million ways
But each day's
another wrong turn
I better head out
If Connor's not ready
I'm leaving without him
Does anybody have a map
Anybody have a map
Anybody maybe happen to know
to know
how the hell to do this
how the hell to do this
I don't know if you can tell
I don't know if you can tell
But this is me just
But this is me just
pretending to know
pretending to know
So where's the map
I need a clue
'Cause the scary truth is
'Cause the scary truth is
I'm flying blind
I'm flying blind
I'm flying blind
I'm flying I'm flying blind
I'm flying blind
And I'm making this up
And I'm making this up
as I go
as I go
As I go
As I go
