[Verse 1]
You’re still sitting on the front porch swing,
Reading letters that time won’t bring,
The ink's faded, but you hold on tight,
To a love that’s lost in the pale moonlight.
[Chorus]
I’m walking forward, but you stay behind,
Tracing shadows, chasing time.
I’ve got my boots on the road ahead,
But you’re stuck in yesterday instead.
[Verse 2]
The clock keeps ticking, the world spins fast,
But your heart’s a prisoner of the past.
You hum old songs, the ones we knew,
While I’m learning a brand-new tune.
[Prechorus]
I tried to pull you, tried to call,
But you don’t see the writing on the wall.
[Chorus]
I’m walking forward, but you stay behind,
Tracing shadows, chasing time.
I’ve got my boots on the road ahead,
But you’re stuck in yesterday instead.
[Bridge]
There’s a box of dreams by the bedroom door,
But you won’t unpack it, not anymore.
I’m out here running, chasing the sun,
But your race is over before it’s begun.
