That Leaving Feeling
and this time it's here to stay
i've been weighing up the pulling
and pushing me away
the path is just so heavy
but it's something that i can't leave
and this future is so certain
it pushes me to my knees
is that your heart talking
or just that befuddled mind?
the people that you love they change
when you leave them behind
but this road that is pulling
is weared down to a thread
and if i don't start climbing pretty soon
it'll be over my head
we all have dreams of leaving
we all want to make a new start
go and pack that little suitcase
with the pieces of our hearts
all those worries and those sorrows
we can just toss them away
buy a coffee and a paper
and go step onto a train
but i've been to long wondering
limping around this town
with everything that is pulling
is pulling me further down
go and make all your excuses
and say all your goodbye's
but take a look in the mirror
it's the hardest one you'll ever find
all those worries and those sorrows
we can just toss them away
go and find a new tomorrow
and forget about your yesterdays
go and pack your ideas
and kiss your kids goodbye
leave the keys on the mail
with the sadness that's in your eyes
maybe tomorrow
today looks like it's bringing rain
and i'll leave everything in order
don't want nothing standing in my way
there're jobs that need attending
and the logs that are waiting to stock
and i'll leave everything in order
don't want nothing gonna hold me back
