Leaving Song

Leavin' Song Summer came

And days grew long

Lilacs bloomed 'round

Meulfront pond

First place I ever held his hand Timeless

walks and breathless nights

Went rushing past like peace in flight

I was prayin' it was never gonna end

Then the autum leaves were blazin'

Like the fireworks in July

For a fleeting moment

That flame was in his eyes

But as quickly as the colors came

They burned out of the sky Goodbye Adios

See you later I gotta go I've been holding on too long

This is my leaving song I'll take one last look around

Pull up roots that I put down

Drive across that Hastings County line

Trade a part of who I was

For a future I'm not certain of

But I'll keep the best of what

I leave behind

Oh I'll miss those Sunday mornings

And those Friday football games

A peace that comes from knowing

Some places never change

That's the reason that

I'll miss it And the reason

I can't stay Goodbye Adios

See you later I gotta go

I've been holding on too long

This is my leaving song

This is my leaving song
