Time to Move On - Tom Petty Lyrics

It's time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead, I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It's time to move on, it's time to get going
...
Broken skyline, which way to love land
Which way to something better
Which way to forgiveness
Which way do I go
...
It's time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead, I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing

I've been feeling like it's time to move on for a while now. But how do you ever know it's the right time? If overanalyzing and overthinking were Olympic sports, I think I'd have a real shot at a gold medal, people. But I guess I can either stay, feeling jaded and stuck...or decide it's time to move on, time to get going and start doing something about it. I've been feeling stuck for far too long...and it's time to do something about it.

You know what I think the hardest thing is, though? It's not making the decision...that's pretty easy. I've made this decision a few times already. It's taking those first few steps after making the decision. Sticking with the decision after a few disappointments and setbacks. Keeping yourself motivated.

How do you ever know you've made the right decision? I guess sometimes you don't. And maybe there aren't necessarily right decisions all the time. Maybe there are just choices you make, and none of them are right or wrong, really. They're just choices and you can change your mind. All you can do is the best you can (even if you don't think it's any good, at least you're trying, right?)...and hope.

To something better, moving on...and getting going.
