Although the years have changed now
And we go by different names
I remember the sound
Of our roof in the rain
And my mind goes back in time
To a place so far gone
Where the love we left behind us was still new
We were listening to a record
On the end of your bed
Not giving thought to where it was all going
And I wished right then and there so badly
I could read your mind
Just so I could know the things that you were knowing
I believe, yes I do
The hardest part is always
Leaving love behind
I believe, yes I do
That everything we lose
Will be a gift in time
But the hardest part is leaving love behind
When it was time to say goodbye
Those words came down like stones
I admit for so long after
It was hard to feel at home
We'd hear the highway song
Shifting down in the night
I was grateful that the echoes broke the quiet
I believe, yes I do
The hardest part is always
Leaving love behind
I believe, yes I do
That everything we lose
Will be a gift in time
But the hardest part is leaving love behind
The Sun fades is on me now
And I miss you like words can't know
And I missed my shot at dying young a long time ago
It's just a lesson learned in love
It's not angry, it's not sad
Sometimes you gotta lose something
To know what you have
I believe (I believe), yes I do
The hardest part is always
Leaving love behind
I believe (I believe), yes I do
Oh, that everything we lose
Will be a gift in time
I believe (I believe), yes I do
The hardest part is leaving love behind
