Moving On
  Sad news breaks my bones
  No matter what I try the tears will flow
  Comforting hugs make their way in
  People whisper of the life that's to begin
  But I don't want hear it (no)
  Don't want to believe it (oh no)
  I want you
  Still I know I need to
  Move
  Chorus:
  I'm moving on
  It's the only thing left to do
  I'm moving on
  But I still miss you
  I'm moving on
  Cause I know you'd want me to
  I'm moving on
  When I'm done with this song
  Sitting in the dark, hugging my knees
  Crying however much I please
  Singing to the empty room
  It may make feel calmer
  But it doesn't heal me for longer
  The only medicine is moving forward
Chorus
  All I want to do is stay still
  All I want to hear is the past
  All I want to think of is pretending that you still last (you still last)
  But I know I must get up (get up)
  I know I must stay strong
  Like you always were
  I must face my life head on
Chorus
  The tears are still flowing
  I see where my life is going
  And I pledge that I will follow
  The hole's no longer ripping
  I fear that I'm still tripping
  There's a smile on my face
  Ohhh
  It's there for you
Chorus
  Grandma, I'm moving on for you
  You'll always be here with me
  I know I can turn to you
  So for now
  So for now
  I'm moving on...for you
  I'm moving on...for you
