Time To Move On
by Benjamin William Hastings

Album: Sold Out, Sincerely

A ring around an oak tree
A circle 'round the sun
Time is like some rascal kid
Who knocks the door and runs
Nothing lasts forever and I couldn't tell you why
But every night the sun slips through the sky
Singing

I think it's time to move on
I think it's time to move on

Way back when in high school
I tripped and fell in love
We gave each other everything, in retrospect too much
Thought it'd last forever, it don't always work like that
Looking back, I'm sure glad that we said, honey

I think it's time to move on
I think it's time to move on

The steeples and the stages
Bus calls and cheap hotels
A decade of my life
And man I think I did it well
Oh it was mostly heaven
But it's hard to keep out hell
Is it Jesus, or the devil, or myself
Singing

I think it's time to move on
I think it's time to move on

I got the call in Kansas while I was on the road
"Your grandma's only got a couple minutes 'til she goes."
Mum held the phone up so I could say my last goodbye
And somewhere in the silence she replied

I think it's time to move on
I think it's time to move on
