Lyrics

MOVE ON

It was down on Mission I saw the guy
Took a minute to recognize
The stare was dead, but they were Eddie?s eyes
I wonder what went wrong

I knew him once before life was hard
G.I. Joes and baseball cards
You grow up in the backyard
Then choose a road and move on

We thought he?d be the lucky man
See the world on Uncle Sam
They left his legs in Afghanistan
And his soul in Babylon

His dreams and mine, they were the same
Be the hero, win the game
The happy ending never came
You can?t go back, move on

Now all he?s got are some memories
A cardboard sign saying ?help me please?
A medal for his bravery
And a tin cup where his legs should be

Never thought he?d been misled
Believed in what the good book said
Where was God while Eddie bled?
It?s a lonely road, move on

Roads on which our lives depend
Some are long and some dead end
And there?s no starting over when
You wonder what went wrong

? Been twenty years since glory days
Thirty for him by the lines on his face
He nods at me through a morphine haze
I hand him a ten?and move on copyright 2007 Goroll
