A song for Dawson (Lyrics)
Verse I
As I walk these halls of life
They take me back to a simpler time
I look around in hopes to find
The answers, and the reason why
(tell me why)
It had to go this way
But I know I gotta be strong
Tryin’ to act like nothing’s wrong with me
But I know I must go on
Tryin’ to understand the pain
But life is crazy
Am holding on tight
But in reality
Wanna come back but am afraid
I will never act and feel the same
I must believe in a better day
Gotta be strong am moving on
Chorus:
Time to move on (moooving on)
I gotta move on (moooving on)
Now we offer you this song
For you to move along
Gotta go onnnnn (mooovin’ on)
you Gotta cope, gotta be strong
The world wants you to hold on
You Gotta move along
verse II:
Tell me why
I feel the way that I feel
I can try
And Pretend it’s not for real
(Tell me why)
It had to go this way
But I know I gotta be strong
Tryin’ to act like nothing’s wrong with me
But I know I must go on
Tryin’ to understand the pain
That reminds me
Now I must forget
Gotta keep my sanity
There’s a laugh we shared
All the moments they were there
I must preserve them in my mind
a better life I gotta find
