In this quiet town, beneath the southern skies Your dreams are bigger than this simple life of mine
I see the fire burning deep within your eyes And it breaks my heart to see our love unwind
You're chasing marquees under the bright lights While I hold to memories from all my lonely nights
Voices echo in these empty halls we knew They say letting go is what love's supposed to do
Loving you means setting you free Even if it tears apart the heart in me
Your dreams will take you where I can't go And my dream of me and you I'll never know
We built our castle on a gentle hill But dreams like yours need the wind, need the thrill
I'll keep the porch light on just in case But I won't be an anchor that holds you to this place
Our life was simple in this dusty town Now my stars are falling and you're upward bound
You need the sky and I need this old ground Oh, my heart's a beating but with a hollow sound
Loving you means setting you free Even if it tears apart the heart in me
Your dreams will take you where I can't go Loving you means setting you free
Even if it tears apart the heart in me Your dreams will take you where I can't go
Loving you means setting you free
