New

(album: New - 2016)

My mother's in the kitchen
Sitting up and wishing that I'd
Come out of my room
And say a word or two
My father won't admit it
But I know he hurts just the way I do
'Cause he's felt the heartache too

And my brother's my defendant
The other one don't know it yet but
Loving someone else can break your heart in two
But I've learned to love them
And give all that I've got just the same
As I gave everything for you

And time keeps on moving on
It didn't take long to
Forget about you
So I'm on to something new

I'm headed back to Indiana
Driving down the highway, well I
Never thought that I would be so
Ready to go back
And three months ago I never'd guess I'd
Be so unprepared to leave my
Friends back here at home
And hit the open road

And I know I didn't give it
My best shot on the first go-round
But things are different now
And there's so much left for me
So I'll lace up both my shoes
And crank up every tune in my car
I'm ready for adventure and
The things I've yet to see

And time keeps on moving on
Even when it feels wrong, well there's
Nothing left to lose
So I'm on to something new

To the girl that has my heart
You know who you are
I never thought you'd come so quickly and I
Know neither did you
Ain't it funny how the things you don't expect
Make you a better man?
And I know things don't go as planned but
We're still pushing through

And I hope you know it's true
By every word I say to you
And when I talk so much sometimes
I hope I'm still the one you choose
'Cause you're the only one who keeps me
Sitting up at night
Wondering what you're dreaming of
And if you're thinking of me too

'Cause time keeps moving on
And I'll keep singing songs, babe
Just for you
'Cause you're my perfect view

So I'm on to something new
