Moved West for Love, Left Broken
A upbeat country song about a man who opened his heart up to a woman who wanted him to and for him to just end up getting hurt. He moved across the country to the pacific northwest for her just for the relationship to fail.

Lyrics
[Verse]
The highway lights were dim when I first saw her smile
She said "Come chase the rain, it’s worth the extra mile"
I packed my dreams and left the dust behind
Traded my roots for a love I thought was kind
[Verse]
The wheels kept turnin’ through the deserts and the pines
Every mile marker felt like a step outta time
She swore the coast would heal my weary soul
But the tides don’t lie when the heart pays the toll
[Chorus]
Oh, the Pacific winds don’t whisper, they howl
Turns out you can’t build a home on a vow
I gave her the miles, she gave me the rain
Now I’m just a shadow on this heartbreak highway again
[Verse]
The banjo cries like the ache deep in my chest
Fiddle strings hum what my heart won’t confess
She left my love where the redwoods stand tall
Just another ghost in the Oregon fog’s sprawl
[Verse]
The coffee’s cold in this diner by the shore
Same old jukebox playin’ "Don’t Come Back No More"
I thumbed the Bible, but the Good Book lied
A cross-country fool with a broke-down pride
[Chorus]
Oh, the Pacific winds don’t whisper, they howl
Turns out you can’t build a home on a vow
I gave her the miles, she gave me the rain
Now I’m just a shadow on this heartbreak highway again
[Chorus]
Oh, the Pacific winds don’t whisper, they howl
Turns out you can’t build a home on a vow
I gave her the miles, she gave me the rain
Now I’m just a shadow on this heartbreak highway again
