Tim Ward Jr. - On Down the Road

I'm movin' to the other side of town
It means I won't be seein' you around
It's just as well
No time to dwell
Just to pack
Takin' all of me, preparing for the change
And you're down the street, yet so far outta range
Ever in my mind
Yet the wind behind my back
Says forward son
There's so much to be done
On down the road
I'm bringin' only what I've room to keep
And I'm thinkin' that I may be doomed to sleep
With tortured dreams
And could have beens
For awhile
And I leave behind a chest of shattered hopes
In a grave where I will lay the battered ghost
Of a hundred tries
For a love that died out in the cold
And when the dirt's been packed
There's no turning back
It's on down the road
I'll raise my gaze to faces bright and new
In places where I'll bear no sight of you
Maybe there I'll find
A pair of eyes that shine
The way that mine once glowed
When I looked your way
On a gloomy day
Somewhere back the road
Yes I'm movin' to the other side of town
It seems I won't be seein' you around
Come end July
It's gonna make me cry to go
Not knowing when
We may meet again
On down the road
