Dusty Drive

repost - lyrics

Torn between the feel of an old love
and the promise of newfound freedom,
with her heart hanging in the balance,
she knew what she had to do.
She looked over her shoulder one last time
as she left him behind in that dusty drive
with all the lies not worth living,
with all the ties not worth keeping.


CHORUS:
She found the strength to make it
She found the will to make her life her own
She's hurting but she knows
Oh, she knows
She's gonna be alright
Now that he's gone


He hit his knees as she drove away
asking God please...
don't let it end this way.
He vowed he'd love her this time around
like he knew he should've way back then;
he swore he wouldn't betray her again
if only she'd give him another chance.
But it's too late because

Repeat Chorus

Life has taken on a whole new feel
She found the one whose love she knows is real
And though she won't forget the one who came before
She's breathing easier
She's standing on her own two feet
She looks in the mirror
and for the first time in a long time
she likes what she sees because

Repeat Chorus

Life is better now
The sun is coming through the clouds
She's gonna make it
Yeah, she's gonna be just fine
After all...

Repeat Chorus
