lyrics

Mostly I'm alone a lot
Mostly I guess you're not
Forgive me if I stop and stare
I was just unprepared
See the world has fallen at your feet
You hardly even missed a beat
Everyday your heart beats a little stronger
Every night with me it just gets a little longer

CHORUS:
You've gone on a million miles from here
Swept up like a feather in the air
You make it look so easy
It doesn't seem quite fair
Maybe I'm still tryin'
To get myself up and flying

I should be farther on by now
I just can't catch a breeze somehow
I should be free to leave the ground
With no dreams left to weigh me down
Would you tell me what I have to do
I've been tryin' to deny the truth
But here it is now, the living proof
The one I loved loves someone new

CHORUS

Yeah you make it look so easy
It doesn't seem quite fair
Maybe I'm still tryin'
To get myself up and flying

about

PETE [stringfellow] Nashville, Tennessee

Tradition-steeped prodigy, rural technologist, Hollywood farm boy. The paradoxes are many for PETE [stringfellow], as his new single "Pole Dance" attests. That a country artist would even consider a song with that title is a conversation starter all on its own, and the song's clever twist is already leaving both sides of the debate smiling.
