"I'm Leaving" lyrics

"I'm Leaving"

I'm leaving
I won't be back again
You know it's been a long time coming
But I'm gonna miss her in the end

Oh, take me back to them old times
To where I didn't have a care
I've taken the time to notice
All the good times being shared
Oh, I'll miss the drinks on Fridays
After we've been working on the land
But if I could have just one more day
You know I wouldn't, anyway

'Cause I gotta be leaving
Oh, won't be back again
Well, you know it's been a long time coming
I'm gonna miss her in the end
Ooh-ooh

Oh, I know we gotta make some changes
Find me a place to call my own
So many good times and memories
You know I'll miss that old home

Say my goodbyes to old Rosie
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Buried in the yard
Is there something in this land
To help me understand?

Why I gotta be leaving
Won't be back again
Oh-ooh
Well, you know it's been a long time coming
And I'm gonna miss her in the end

And I hope one day I'll see you again
Reminisce on all the times we shared as friends
So much time gone by
Oh, look how you have changed
But I hope you found someone to love you
Like I did, then

Before I had to be leaving
Oh-ooh
I won't be back again
Oh-ooh
You know it's been a long time coming
But I'm gonna miss her in the end

Why I gotta be leaving
Oh-oh-oh
I won't be back again
Oh-oh-oh
But you know it's been a long time coming
I'm gonna miss her in the end

I've got to be
I've got to be
I've got to be leaving
Well, you know it's been a long time coming
I'm gonna miss her in the end
