The Edge Of The Sea

Warm sand between my toes
Salt air blowing by
Cold drink in my hand
And a sunset in the sky

I packed up what was left of me
And left Tennessee behind
Now every morning feels like freedom
For the first time in a long time

Warm breeze, hot sand
Letting time slip through my hands
Drinking for the first time
Not to escape, but celebrate

So many wasted years with you
Now they're washing clean
Like the tide erasing footprints
From the edge of the sea

Life moves a little slower here
And that's alright with me
Nobody asking where I'm going
Nobody telling me who to be

I spend my days chasing sunsets
And my nights beneath the stars
Funny how losing everything
Helped me find my heart

Warm breeze, hot sand
Letting time slip through my hands
Drinking for the first time
Not to escape, but celebrate

So many wasted years with you
Now they're washing clean
Like the tide erasing footprints
From the edge of the sea

I used to think you were my future
Now you're just a memory
And now I'm fishing with all the fish in the sea
And they're looking a whole lot better than you ever did to me

If it weren't for all your cheating
And the hell you put me through
I'd still be stuck back there
Instead of living this dream come true

Warm breeze, hot sand
Watching another sunset land
Raising up my glass tonight
To the man I used to be

Cause all those wasted years with you
Led me where I belong
I finally found my paradise

I finally found my home

So here's to second chances
And lessons learned the hard way

Warm breezes, hot sand

And now Im my own man
