Leaving You Behind

One more mile to Woodmond
From Alborwood Avenue
Looking back in the rearview mirror
It's a long, long route, from you

'Cause I'm leaving you behind
'Cause I'm leaving you behind

And now my heart is heavy
Like a stone cold misty night
I'm doing my best to convince myself
That she won't cry for daddy tonight

'Cause I'm leaving you behind
'Cause I'm leaving you behind

Nothing would change her mind
Stranger days are now a part of our lives
Looking back, the mirror cracks
A joke that is my mind

Feel my heart beating for you, my child
Even though I did let you down
I promise you I ain't saying goodbye

Running for the altar
Like children playing with fire
Anything left of my innocence remains
To feed this folley that I

I'm leaving you behind

Nothing would change her mind
Stranger days are now a part of our lives
Looking back, the mirror cracks
A joke that is my life

Feel my heart beating for you, my child
Even though I did let you down
I promise you I ain't saying goodbye
