What She's Missin'
(c) Nov 2007, Rebecca Dale Peaden (BMI)/Moker Jarrett (ASCAP)/Will Hurley (BMI)


Now she's restless as a river
When springtime melts the snow
Twirls her hair 'neath grandma's quilt
Moon shinin' thru her window
She's flippin' thru a cosmo mag
realizes life on the farm's a drag

Chorus:

She's ready to bust loose
find her future and embrace it
there's a big ole world out there
with a sea of new faces
the earth's turnin' - times burnin'
as she dreams of faraway places
life's callin' and her tears are fallin'
'cus she can see what she's missin'


As grandaddy's clock's chimin' midnight
Fast asleep - daddy's breathin' hard
Her heart beat's stealin' her sleep
Then she hears the tires pullin' up in her yard
It's time to roll on - she kicks back the cover
She's skippin' town with her best friend's brother


Chorus:

She's ready to bust loose
find her future and embrace it
there's a big ole world out there
with a sea of new faces
the earth's turnin' - times burnin'
as she dreams of faraway places
life's callin' and her tears are fallin'
'cus she can see what she's missin'

Bridge:

Restless and out of control
She's chasin' dreams with heart and soul
Time will tell if it works out well
But she's just got to know

Chorus (2):

She's ready to bust loose
find her future and embrace it
there's a big ole world out there
with a sea of new faces
the earth's turnin' - now she's yearnin
to see those faraway places
what's behind - she puts out of mind
cus now she see's what she's missin

Outtro:

She can see what she's missin'
She can see what she's missin'
