I'm Moving On

I've never had a liking for country music. It sounds so old, so yesterday, so my parents. YUCK.
Somehow I stumbled upon Rascal Flatts and that changed my perception a hundred and eighty degrees.
What they do is simply incredible;
they sing about life.

Songs these days are all about going down low or getting it on, being in some club where you can't handle me right now or probably just catching a grenade for someone you really love.

Rascal Flatts does not have all those cheesy stuff in their songs. And that's what I really love about them.
They are so real, genuine and touching. Realistic perhaps..My all time favourite would be What Hurts The Most & My Wish but I found another song recently which really coincides with the objective of our meeting last week: Moving On.


I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarantees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone

I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived like I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
