New Beginning

Packed my bags but I left your picture the floor

 I keep telling myself I’m fine but I can’t do it no more

Your old guitar echoes up and down this hallway

And I’d write a hundred songs just so I could talk to you babe

Like a whisper in the night I’m blowing in the wind

Looking for the life and the love we could’ve been

Been walking in the desert where the shadows never end

But I’m learning to let go

I thought we were forever but forever didn’t last

Now I’m running from my footsteps of the memories in the past

Every mile every minute I get closer to a new beginning

With every sunset I get further from feeling this pain

With every teardrop truckstop

I keep rolling down this worn out highway

Like a phoenix rising up from the ashes

 I’m a wildfire burning right past this

And I’ve sung a hundred songs just trying to talk to you babe

 Like a whisper in the night I’m blowing in the wind

Looking for the life and the love we could’ve been

Been walking in the desert where the shadows never end

But I’m learning to let go

I thought we were forever but forever didn’t last

Now I’m running from my footsteps of the memories in the past

Every mile every minute I get closer to a new beginning

Another hotel key and some clothes wrinkled in a suitcase

I’m still singing this song just trying to talk to you babe

Like a whisper in the night I’m blowing in the wind

Looking for the life and the love we could’ve been

Been walking in the desert where the shadows never end

But I’m learning to let go (learning to let go)

I thought we were forever but forever didn’t last

Now I’m running from my footsteps of the memories in the past

Every mile every minute I get closer to a new beginning
