Well, you told me when we met Your love would last forevermore And it took me by surprise When you up and walked out the door Been suffering through this dry spell With no relief in sight Well, you're sowing oats with another girl And raising cane all night The only way I'll make it through this drought Is by breaking new ground Yeah, the only thing you left When you left me was no choice Gonna plant my love in another field With no rocks beneath the soil It's high time I was leaving this old town Start breaking new ground Well, I'm finding out that I can live without you on my side The grass is getting greener slowly as the days go by Somewhere I'll find someone to help me tear down these old walls Fill my life on a solid love, I'll rise above it all I won't let your memory get me down I'm breaking new ground Yeah, the only thing you left When you left me was no choice Gonna plant my love in another field With no rocks beneath the soil The only way a new life can be found Is by breaking new ground Yeah, the only thing you left When you left me was no choice Gonna plant my love in another field With no rocks beneath the soil And it's high time luck was a'leaving this old town And start breaking new ground
