Moving on Under the Old Country Sky

Underneath the fading sunset sky,

I keep a whisper of your lullaby.

But the miles and memories, they fade away,

Time's the only thing that could make me stay.

Broke my boots on this dusty road,

Left our love in the old homestead.

Your name still echo’s in my mind,

But I gotta leave it all behind.

Heart heavy, but I gotta try,

To find a new dream beneath these Alabama skies.

Though part of me will always mourn,

I'm learning how to carry on.

Goodbye to the girl who holds my soul,

A love I’ll keep but can’t control.

Heartbroken country boy, moving on,

Knowing she’s the one I’ll forever long.

Sang our song under the full moon glow,

Thought I’d never let you go.

But love’s a river that can run too deep,

Sometimes you’ve gotta turn and leap.

Gotta leave the past where it belongs,

Find new sunsets, new mornings, new songs.

Though I’ll always carry a part of her,

It’s time to face another year.

Goodbye to the girl who holds my soul,

A love I’ll keep but can’t control.

Heartbroken country boy, moving on,

Knowing she’s the one I’ll forever long.

Maybe someday, when the stars align,

Memories will comfort, be just fine.

But now I walk these empty fields,

Sealing wounds that time will heal.

Underneath the fading sunset sky,

I keep a whisper of your lullaby.

Walking on, though love’s still near,

A broken heart can learn to steer.
