Start Anew

I look at my life
And what do I see
Nothing here to tie me down
No job, no woman, not a thing
I realize now it's time
To pack my things
And up and leave
To get out of this town
And start anew
I know there's got to be
Something better waiting for me
It's time I spread my wings
Fly away from here
For I hear my calling
And it's out there somewhere
Somewhere my life is waiting
Waiting to begin
