Leaving Home - John Williams & London Symphony Orchestra

By the time you read this I'll be Somewhere over thirty thousand feet Always knew this day was coming Ever since you put the dream in me And I know that you're prone to worry It's the way you've always been But I hope you know the way you raised me Made me tougher than you think I'll be okay on my own Now that I'm leaving home, I need you to know That I'll still call on Sunday mornings Can't look in your eyes, or I'll change my mind So I wrote it all down for you In this little note, I'm giving you hope That no matter where I go You'll always be my home I hope you know I'm gonna miss you And all your Friday night advice I know you think I never listened But I always knew that you were right That's why I'll be fine on my own Now that I'm leaving home, I need you to know That I'll still call on Sunday mornings Can't look in your eyes, or I'll change my mind So I wrote it all down for you In this little note, I'm giving you hope That no matter where I go You'll always be my home I'll be back before you know it 'Cause I'll miss the rain and snow and Mostly, I'll miss you I'll be back before you know it Couldn't say it, so I wrote it But I swear, I'll see you soon Now that I'm leaving home, I need you to know That all of me will always need you And you will always be My home
