Whisper from Better Angels by Woody Dodge

it feels like hearts are breaking
you don't know what it's taking
to keep on keep on moving on
a blink before the eye
short line whistle cries
racing a freight train
before the dawn

with wounds fresh and stinging
church bells are ringing
with hopes and dreams held
hand in hand
underneath the sunlight
heading for the first night
I don't know how much I can stand

did you go knowing it gets better
did you know leaving it all behind

i keep on hesitating
don't know why i'm waiting
the hours late and the day is long
through a hard morning
didn't see the warning
one headlight drifting on and on

did you go knowing it gets better
did you know leaving it all behind
did you go knowing it gets better
did you know leaving it all behind

maybe i will die here
maybe alone hear
with just a whisper of a song
but i'll know i had a lover
who i loved like no other
and ill lay my head down
ready to move on
