about

Keep your heart open…sometimes it IS better to leave. A song for those who are brave and wise enough to call it a day.

lyrics

When your anchor is gone and everything’s shifting
And you don’t know where you stand
When all that you thought that you knew is drifting away
Slipping out of your hands
Take a moment to be
Take a moment to be

It’s better to leave than be left behind
It’s better to lose than never find
Keep your heart open

When the old ways are broken and there is no mending
The sadness and regret
When you want for a new way
but it is uncertain
And you wish for what comes next
Take a moment to breathe
Take a moment to breathe

Either way is a road untravelled
Either way is a difficult path
Who can choose how a life unravels?
There’s no way back
