"Time Moves On" lyrics

"Time Moves On"

I was born beneath the Appalachian range
Took my running fathers name
Can't give it back

Momma didn't have a lot of money saved
Daddy smoked it all away
And packed his bags

I was sitting missing things I never had

Me and abbey we'd just tally up the days
That he'd call but never say
It wasn't our fault

And I remember every part about that day
Mommas tone and grammas face
When they got the call

It's hard to miss a man you never saw
And when he hit the ground I took the fall

But time moves on
Time moves on
And on

Couple years went by, I had to grow up faster
Lost my accent in Alaska
Started over

I came back home to a family that was scattered
Coby said he'd break the pattern
Was getting sober

But I could see right through those lies as I got older

As time moves on
Time moves on
And on

Now I'm 17 and nothing feels the same
As the mountains in the days
When I was younger

All that's left of it is in a picture frame
As I grow it starts to fade
It loses color

If I could back now I'd take another

Cause time moves on
Time moves on
And on
And on
Oh, it moves on
