GO AHEAD AND LOVE SOMEONE

You’re having trouble leaving town.
It’s where you’ve grown,
the family home,
the place you’ve known
so long…

But love your friends can offer just won’t do.
The parties end,
the nights you spend
alone.

Let go of all those reasons winding up inside your head
You don’t have to be reckless but you need to move ahead
You’ve spent too long already taking care of everyone
It doesn’t take a prophet to foresee the time has come
It’s your time for moving on
Go ahead and love someone

I’ve watched you have your summer flings
The tourists come,
the tourists go,
the winter beach
so cold.

But there’s someone who wants you far from here.
She’s calling you,
and if you stay
you lose.

Let go of all the reasons winding up inside your head
You don’t have to be careless
But you need to move ahead
You spent so long already taking care of everyone
It doesn’t take a prophet to foresee the time has come
for taking care of number one
Its your time for moving on
Go ahead and love someone
