Starting Out Again, Alone
We were through, couldn't fight any more, she packed her bags, and was out the door
The words we said cut to the bone, now I am alone
She's been gone for three months now, I don't know where and I don't care how
My travelin' star came callin' around, time to leave this town
Another hole in this battered heart, another day and a brand new start
Another job and a different life, without the pain and strife
Park the trailer by my new front door, moving boxes cover the floor
A new house filled with my same old things, I'm takin' off my ring
Seen in the cold hard light of day, I don't blame her for going away
"For better or worse" just wasn't enough, we fell apart when the road got rough
I just gotta walk this path a while, for a few more lonely miles
Traveling a new road on my own, starting out again, alone
(So I) walk the streets of my new home town, alleys and sidewalks up and down
The city square and the covered bridge, sunset from the ridge
Down by the river the water's high, the trees have turned and the black geese fly
Autumn's ending, soon winter's here, the wind whispers in my ear
A snowy night and my cell phone rings, it's her and she's sayin' kinder things
Reminiscing about way back when, she wants to try again
(I said) "I'll always hold you in my heart, but we both need a brand new start
"You are you and I am me, we just disagree"
Morning brings a tear to my eye, but I had to tell her that last goodbye
After all the pain and tears, I couldn't take any more heartbreak years
It's quiet and peaceful and I'll be okay, it's gettin' better every day
I've struggled, learned, healed and grown, starting out again, alone
The words we said cut to the bone, now I am alone
She's been gone for three months now, I don't know where and I don't care how
My travelin' star came callin' around, time to leave this town
Another hole in this battered heart, another day and a brand new start
Another job and a different life, without the pain and strife
Park the trailer by my new front door, moving boxes cover the floor
A new house filled with my same old things, I'm takin' off my ring
Seen in the cold hard light of day, I don't blame her for going away
"For better or worse" just wasn't enough, we fell apart when the road got rough
I just gotta walk this path a while, for a few more lonely miles
Traveling a new road on my own, starting out again, alone
(So I) walk the streets of my new home town, alleys and sidewalks up and down
The city square and the covered bridge, sunset from the ridge
Down by the river the water's high, the trees have turned and the black geese fly
Autumn's ending, soon winter's here, the wind whispers in my ear
A snowy night and my cell phone rings, it's her and she's sayin' kinder things
Reminiscing about way back when, she wants to try again
(I said) "I'll always hold you in my heart, but we both need a brand new start
"You are you and I am me, we just disagree"
Morning brings a tear to my eye, but I had to tell her that last goodbye
After all the pain and tears, I couldn't take any more heartbreak years
It's quiet and peaceful and I'll be okay, it's gettin' better every day
I've struggled, learned, healed and grown, starting out again, alone
