Move On
Teenage years so long ago
running wild and free
happier times
where I want again to be
it was just you and me
living for the moment
now that moment is where I live
so here I am today
still so much to give
all those memories
I can't help but re-live
night after night
there's no end in sight
not sure about the destination
of this flight
each time I think I may finally see the light
darkness once again settles around me
why can't this just be
I need this for me
this is what I clearly see
telling you would set me free
yeah I know, I know
patience is key
inside me there's a fire
I can't put out
you're my hearts desire
I have no doubt
I've started a river
with the tears I've cried
just pushing through
trying to get past this
thoughts of looking deep into your eyes
makes me shiver
the reasons that make me quiver
is the excitement of seeing you again
but at the same time being scared to death
of taking that breath
and letting those words be free
damned if I do, damned if I don't
I know where the don't gets me
nowhere fast
the time is here at last
to tell you what I've needed
to say for so long
and right or wrong
it has to be done
so I can then
move on
