Gotta throw in my country suggestions.

There's More To Me Than You~Jessica Andrews

I spent years and all of this time

Thinking I was better off 'cause you were mine

You always said it was your way or the highway

So I'm shiftin' my life into drive

I'm getting out, kissin' the past goodbye

Like Toby said "How do you like me now?"

This conversation has run dry

And I keep telling myself

Oooh, Oooh, there's more to me than you

Oooh, Oooh, don't understimate what I can do

Well I'm alright, It's okay

I know I'll make it through

'Cause there's more to me than you

I'm not sayin' I'm battered and bruised

But I might as well be with the words you use

I believe in myself and that makes me stronger

Things change, so have I

I'm gonna make hay while the sun still shines

You can clip my wings, I'm still gonna fly

I'm on my own and I'm on my way

And I keep telling myself

Oooh, Oooh, there's more to me than you

Oooh, Oooh, don't understimate what I can do

Well I'm alright, It's okay

I know I'll make it through

'Cause there's more to me than you

There was always something that meant more to you than me

And I'm just sorry it's taken this for you to see

Oooh, Oooh, there's more to me than you

Oooh, Oooh, don't understimate what I can do

Well I'm alright, It's okay

I know I'll make it through

'Cause there's more to me than you

Or

I'm Movin' on~Rascal Flatts

I've dealt with my ghosts

And faced all my deamons

Finally content with the past I regret

I found you find strenght in your moments of weakness

For once I'm at peace with my self

I've benn burdened with blame

Traped 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 moving on

At last I can see (Last I can see)

Life has been patiently waiting for me

And I know there's no guarentees

But I'm not alone

There comes at time

In everyones life

When all you can see

Are the years passing by (are the years passing by)

And I have made up my mind

That those days are gone

I've sold what I could

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 loose everything to find out.

Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road

I'm Moving on

I'm moving on

I'm moving on

Hope it's not too late to help ya...

Unseen, welcome to Songfacts!

Oh, speaking of moving on to better things . . .

No Time ~ Guess Who

No time left for you

On my way to better things

No time left for you

I’ll find myself some wings

No time left for you

Distant roads are calling me

No time left for you.

No time for a summer friend

No time for the love you send

Seasons change and so did I

You need not wonder why

You need not wonder why

There’s no time left for you

No time left for you.

No time left for you

On my way to better things

No time left for you

I’ll find myself some wings

No time left for you

Distant roads are calling me

No time left for you.

No time for a gentle rain

No time for my watch and chain

No time for revolving doors

No time for the killing floor

No time for the killing floor

There’s no time left for you

No time left for you.

No time for a summer friend

No time for the love you send

Seasons change and so did I

You need not wonder why

You need not wonder why

There’s no time left for you

No time left for you.

No Time, No Time, No Time, No Time

No Time, No Time, No Time, No Time

I got, got, got, got no time

I got, got, got, got no time

I got, got, got, got no Tyme . . .

Hi Unseen,

In my never-ending quest to answer all questions with a Beatles' song, I give you:

Here Comes The Sun

It's not directly about moving on, but it is about things getting better, and one of my eternal faves.

But here's something very different:

Beethoven String Quartet 15 in A minor (Op. 132), 3rd movement.

Beethoven wrote this after recovering from a long and near-fatal illness. An impossibly perfect musical re-telling of his awakening from darkness to light. Not difficult, not high-fallutin'. Just beautiful.

Hope you and your friend like them, and that things really are looking up,

LeeBB

I know that I know the song, but for the life of me I can't seem to remember any of the (german) lyrics - which is crucial for finding the name and artist on the internet :P

sorry, Schlager aren't my strong suit :crazy:

Moving on to better things?

That means something must be left behind...as dead, as it were.

The perscription?

Seeing Things (for the first time)- by The Black Crowes

Here are the lyrics...sing along, if you will

Seeing Things - The Black Crowes

I find it hard to shed a tear

You brought it all on yourself my dear

Wrong, yes I may be

Dont leave a light on for me

cause I aint comin home

It hurts me baby to be alone

Yes, it hurts me baby

A hundred years will never ease

Hearing things I wont believe

I saw it with my own two eyes

All the pain that I cant hide

And this pain starts in my heart

And this love tears us apart

You wont find me bent down on my knees

Aint bendin over backwards baby

Not to please

cause Im seeing things for the first time

Im seeing things for the first time, oh yeah

Im seeing things for the first time

In my life, in my life

I used to dream

Of better days that never came

Sorry aint nothin to me

Im gone and thats the way it must be

So please Ive done my time

Lovin you is such a crime

You wont fine me down on, on my knees

Wont fine me over backwards baby

Just to please

cause Im seeing things for the first time

Im seeing things for the first time

Seeing things for the first time

Oh Im seeing things for the first time

Yeah, seeing things for the first time

Im seeing things for the first time

Yeah, Im seeing things for the first time

In my life, in my life

Here's one that never failed to give me the get-up-and-go to put past things aside and look forward to a brighter future . . .

I've Found Someone of My Own ~ Free Movement

I got up this morning

While I was having my coffee

My woman came in, sat down by my side

With tears in her eyes

She said I´ve a confession to make

I said Woman, speak what´s on your mind

She said I´ve found somebody new

To take your place

I said don´t feel so all alone

I´ve found someone of my own

All those lonely nights

You left me all alone

My true love would call

And talk to me on the phone´

I said ´Woman, if that´s the way it´s gotta be

Then darlin, don´t you worry about me

She said I´ve found somebody new

To take your place

I said don´t feel so all alone

I´ve found someone of my own

I got up from the table

Reached down and wiped the tears

From her face

I put out my cigarette

Turned and walked away

She said I´ve found somebody new

To take your place

I said don´t feel so all alone

I´ve found someone of my own.
