Rear View Mirror
Finding Home: Navigating Life's Broken Roads with Tennessee Twin
Lyrics
I turned the handle
I initiated a change or action
Opened the door
I opened the opportunity for something new
Put my feet out on the stony floor
I stepped onto a challenging path
Took my suitcase
I brought along my baggage
And a smile
Carrying my belongings and happiness
Went looking for love, but it took a while
I sought love, though it took time
I took some chances
I embraced risks consistently
Every day
Faced challenges daily
Took some knocks along the way
Encountered setbacks but learned
But they led me
These experiences led me
To the place that I call 'home'
To the place I now consider 'home'
And how it feels to know I'm not alone
Feeling the comfort of not being alone
There's only cracks in the rear-view mirror
Only imperfections in the past
Ahead only memories to make
Future holds opportunities for memories
If we'd got here any sooner
If we arrived earlier, choices unclear
We wouldn't know which road to take
Embracing the uncertain path was worthwhile
I know it wasn't wasted time
The journey wasn't wasted; it had value
It was a broken road, but it made you mine
The challenging path led to a meaningful connection
And now it's time to stop looking back
It's time to stop dwelling on the past
At those cracks in the rear-view mirror
Reflecting on past imperfections is unnecessary
There's a calm within
Feeling a serene inner state
I don't want to shake
Not wanting to disturb this tranquility
Plenty of love for us to make
Abundance of love to share
And memories fade
Memories naturally fade over time
If you really want them to
We can choose which memories to keep
We know which are false and which are true
Distinguishing between genuine and false memories
It's a road that we don't know
Navigating an unknown path
But it's the way we're gonna go
Choosing the uncertain path willingly
It's the chance that we've been given
Embracing the opportunities presented
It's the breeze from an open door
Feeling the freshness of new possibilities
Every day just wanting more
Seeking more fulfillment every day
It's the book we haven't written
Our life story is yet to be fully written
There's only cracks in the rear-view mirror
Reflecting on past imperfections again
Ahead only memories to make
Future holds opportunities for new memories
If we'd got here any sooner
If we arrived earlier, choices unclear (repeated)
We wouldn't know which road to take
Embracing the uncertain path was worthwhile (repeated)
I know it wasn't wasted time
The journey wasn't wasted; it had value (repeated)
It was a broken road, but it made you mine
The challenging path led to a meaningful connection (repeated)
And now it's time to stop looking back
It's time to stop dwelling on the past (repeated)
At those cracks in the rear-view mirror
Reflecting on past imperfections is unnecessary (repeated)
The rear-view mirror
Reiterating the idea of imperfections in the past
