Simply Move Along

It takes a lot of courage
for a man to ask you out
It takes a lot of courage 
and our heart goes on the line

yet do not drag your feet my friend
but take a leap of faith
take the chance to ask her out
don't waste your time with doubt

We dream of love 
we seek it's need 
we see it written
in our dreams

with envy look around you
and feel the dreams you miss
a simple step not taken
can leave you in this mess

don't let your fear control your life
but step up to the plate
accept what fate has written
what ever is your fate

Sometimes we ask the answer 
a hard resounding no
sometimes we ask the answer 
will be the dreams we share

We have a right to ask my friend
she has the right to answer 
she has a right to rule her life
respect is gained with what we know

Sometimes in life we dream about
a girl that's just not into you
sometimes in life we dream about
a girl that loves you for yourself

The simple fact my little friend
their's someone waiting in the end
their's someone, in this world of joy
that see's you as thier loving boy

don't waste your time on anger
don't waste your time on wrong
but simply take a roving look
and find your love an open book

If she dreams another man
then yes it's time to walk
don't waste your time on anger
become the better man

and find a life worth living
the future's in your hands
there's someone out thier waiting
go build a better plan

To many take the path that's wrong 
and hurt the one's they loved
in grief their anger builds from pain
and hurts the one they loved today

but if they simply walked away
they'd live to love another day
yes pain from loss will be your friend
but you will make it in the end
