Moving On

Moving On

© 2002 by Bud Lemire

When the past becomes the present, it is time to move on

Move into the future, where dreams are built upon

Standing in one place, nothing moves anyway

It isn't the way life should be, living day to day

Take a shower or a bath, and cleanse you of your past

And breathe the future plans, of a love that's going to last

For love is to be shared, with someone who loves you

You owe it to your well-being, to do what you must do

We spend our lives waiting, for things that never come true

And get caught up in a vision, that makes us sad and blue

Patience is the key, but very hard to do

Waiting for a better dream, now that one is through

Life is too short to settle, for anything less

You deserve to simply have, all the very best

With each step we take, we grow to learn much more

That makes out spirit stronger, within our inner core

We open up our hearts, and take on all the pain

That wears upon our souls, and puts on such a strain

To know where and when to move, is something we must do

To make a life worth living, in a better life for you

When the past becomes the present, it is time to move on

Move into the future, where dreams are built upon

I'm pretty sure this was right after my Mom passed,

and just before Wanda came into my life. I was just

thinking about the future, and wondering where I was

going to be moving to, to make my dreams come true
