He's Moving On

AIRMAIL LETTER FROM YOU
CAME THROUGH MY DOOR LIKE IT ALREADY KNEW
THAT ID BEEN THINKING OF YOU
JUST THE NIGHT BEFORE UNDER A JANUARY MOON

HES MOVING ON
HES MOVING ON
LIKE THE TRAINS IN THE NIGHT
THAT RUN THROUGH THESE HILLS
BEGGING ME TO COME
BUT FOR NOW I'M JUST SITTING TIGHT

LAST NIGHT A BILLION STARS
FLOODED THE SKY WHEN I WALKED BACK FROM THE BAR
I SAID I COULD BE ANYWHERE
IF I LET MY MIND WANDER
WHILE STARING UP THERE

WINTER IS STRANGE
THE WAY IT KEEPS YOU GUESSING
IF YOULL BE ALRIGHT
BUT HE'S MOVING ON
HES MOVING ON
AND ITS TRUE IM STUCK HERE TONIGHT

SOMEONE WENT AND KNOCKED DOWN
THE HOUSE WHERE DAD GREW UP
TO BUILD A NEW PART OF TOWN
HE USED TO PLAY IN THE CREEK
NOW ITS WHERE YOU PARK YOUR CAR
WHEN THERES NO SPACE IN THE STREET

WE ALL MOVE ON
JUST CAUSE WE HAVE TO
BUT WE STILL GET SAD
CAUSE WE DON'T BELONG
ONLY IN PART
TO THE MEMORIES OF GOOD TIMES WE HAD
