Time to Move On (song)

"Time to Move On" is a song by Tom Petty from his second solo studio album Wildflowers (1994). A live version was released on the live disc of the 2020 box set Wildflowers & All the Rest. The song is similar to the title track, in the same vein but with some orchestration.

Critical reception
AllMusic described the song as a lesser-known masterpiece by Tom Petty, and a highlight on the album. It was described as reminiscent of "Go and Say Goodbye" by Buffalo Springfield, although the song also has life's road and challenges as a theme.

Popularity
While the song was not played live very often by Tom Petty (60 times with the Heartbreakers and once alone), it became quite popular on streaming services: it is Petty's seventh most streamed solo song on Spotify, surpassing popular singles that were live staples, such as "Yer So Bad" and "It's Good to Be King".
