Back to the Starting Line

(Verse 1)

Dirt road under my boots,

Sunset paints the sky,

We built our dreams on these old fields,

And I can’t let them die.

I remember nights by the fire,

With your laughter in the air,

Now the silence cuts so deep,

It’s like you’re never there.

(Chorus)

I’m afraid to start over,

With a heart so full of scars,

Haunted by the memories,

Of us beneath the stars.

Every echo in the twilight,

Tells a story of a time,

But the fear of moving forward,

Keeps me lost in this rhyme.

(Verse 2)

I can still taste that sweet tea,

Sippin’ slow on the porch,

Your hand in mine, the world was fine,

In that little love, we forged.

But seasons change like the weather,

And the leaves fell from the trees,

Now I stand here all alone,

With just the whispers in the breeze.

(Chorus)

I’m afraid to start over,

With a heart so full of scars,

Haunted by the memories,

Of us beneath the stars.

Every echo in the twilight,

Tells a story of a time,

But the fear of moving forward,

Keeps me lost in this rhyme.

(Bridge)

Maybe one day I’ll find the strength,

To let the past fade away,

But tonight I’m just a shadow,

Chasin’ ghosts that made me stay.

(Chorus)

I’m afraid to start over,

With a heart so full of scars,

Haunted by the memories,

Of us beneath the stars.

Every echo in the twilight,

Tells a story of a time,

But the fear of moving forward,

Keeps me lost in this rhyme.

(Outro)

So I’ll sit here on this old porch,

And let the memories unwind,

But deep down I know one day,

I’ll have to leave this all behind.

Back to the starting line.
