Standing Still

[Verse] In this one-horse town, where dreams go to die, I'm watching the world as it passes me by. The road stretches out, but I stay in my lane, Caught in the rut, feeling both hope and pain. [Verse 2] The fields never change, the sky’s always blue, I’m stuck in the place where I first met you. The past haunts my mind like an old country song, I’m yearning for more, but the fear's just as strong. [Chorus] Standing still, but my heart wants to run, Dreaming of places where the roads meet the sun. Wind in my hair, freedom in sight, But here in this town, I stay every night. [Verse 3] Mama said, "Child, don't live in regret, But small-town comfort is all that I've met." I see others fly, chasing dreams in the breeze, While I'm tangled in roots, down here on my knees. [Bridge] What if I fail, what if I fall? What if I don't find my way back at all? Yet the voice inside whispers gentle and kind, "Take that first step, leave your doubts behind." [Chorus] Standing still, but my heart wants to run, Dreaming of places where the roads meet the sun. Wind in my hair, freedom in sight, But here in this town, I stay every night.
