Leaving Home

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I put the locket that you game me in a shoebox

With all my favorite high school pictures in a Ziplock

So when I think I'm by myself I know that I'm not

Thanks for the extra cash

Please take good care of dad

And I promise you I'll call along the way

Mama, don't you cry

I'm moving on, but this ain't goodbye

We might be miles apart, I'll carry you in my heart

I'll send you kisses on the phone

But mama, I'm leaving home

In only four months,

I'll be coming home for Christmas

I bet that all the time will fly,

you know how it does.

Maybe I'll go and find

a nice guy and fall in love

I'll do my best to make you proud

Keep my room the same for now

Just in case these big

old dreams don't work out

Mama, don't you cry

I'm moving on,

but know this ain't goodbye

We might be miles apart,

I'll carry you in my heart

I'll send you kisses on the phone

But mama, I'm leaving home

We knew this day would come

And as bad as we wanna hold on

We both know it's time to let go (let go)

Mama, don't you cry

I'm moving on,

but know this ain't goodbye

Mama, don't you cry

I'm moving on

but know this ain't goodbye

We might be miles apart,

I'll carry you in my heart

I'll send you kisses on the phone

But mama, I'm leaving home

I'm leaving home

I'm leaving home
