You're Leaving

I watched as you played your favorite song.

I tried my hardest to sing along.

You looked so happy to me.

But who knew that the next day,

You'd be falling to my feet.

I thought you'd be here forever.

But I was wrong.

Chorus:

You're leaving,

Going somewhere far away from me.

So I can see what you mean to me.

You're leaving

So I can live,

So I can learn

So I let go.

So I run

So I can hide

So I can live my life.

I sat on my bed the day of your death

I couldn't believe what they told me was true

I kept telling myself that it wasn't your time

That you had to stay with me

That I was right but then I finally had to realize….

Chorus:

You're leaving,

Going somewhere far away from me.

So I can see what you mean to me.

You're leaving

So I can live,

So I can learn

So I let go.

So I run

So I can hide

So I can live my life.

You're leaving,

Going to a better place.

So I can find,

Who I am inside.

So I can be everything you wanted for me. Ohh.

(Quieter)

You're leaving,

Going somewhere far away.

So I can see you're leaving me.
