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 would hear the highway's 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 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 got to lose something To know what you have I believe, yes I do (I believe, yes I do) The hardest part is always leaving love behind I believe, yes I do (I believe, yes I do) That everything we lose Will be a gift in time (I believe, yes I do) I believe The hardest part is leaving love behind

I learned quite a lot Shooting through my mind Things I never guessed at before And so I decided To leave my old life behind I don't need it anymore I'm gonna learn to climb the clouds I'm gonna learn to climb the wind I wont stop til Ive understood the dark I'm gonna learn to fly the clouds I'm gonna understand the air My mind will listen to the stars To everyone else I appear quite the same And I help them as much as I can But they'll never know that my mind is in the air O how could they ever understand I'm gonna learn to climb the clouds I'm gonna pull upon the rain I'll learn what lies beneath the earth I'm gonna learn to climb the clouds I'm gonna understand the space I'll even go back beyond birth

For every second you've been talking I've been trying to count the lines around your face 'Cause I don't know if I'll ever be this close again I feel like I'm just wasting time Before you pull the trigger It's the drawing of the line It's my ghost you're gonna give up Got your made up mind It hurts to see you're alright When I'm not alright So if you're calling it a night Oh, please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, you're breaking my heart Oh please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, I'm falling apart Have mercy, my heart I felt you slip away so slowly I lost my grip a little more each time we touched I've got no hope I guess I'll never get it back again Yeah-yeah-yeah Felt like I was just wasting time Before you pulled the trigger It's the drawing of the line It's my ghost you're going to give up Got your made up mind It hurts to see you're alright When I'm not alright So if you're calling it a night Oh, please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, you're breaking my heart Oh, please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, I'm falling apart And I just don't know how we got So wrong, for so long Oh, please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, mercy my heart Somehow I can't let go But I know I've been holding on too long Somehow I can't let go But I know I've been holding on too long Oh Oh, please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, you're breaking my heart Oh, please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, I'm falling apart And I just don't know how we got So wrong, for so long Oh please have, have mercy Have mercy on me, mercy my heart Have mercy my heart

Out of focus, didn't take a second to notice Now we're separated by oceans, vast Couldn't make this last I wish I'd have stayed 'Cause love can find a way to make your feet run heavy Make your heart unsteady Then it breaks, so I'm prayin' that you're feelin' the same You know I spent some time in Hollywood tryna find Something to get the thought of you and I off my mind So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start? And all the streetlights illuminate what home used to feel like And when I get to thinkin', can't sleep at night No, I don't feel right I wish I'd have stayed 'Cause love can find a way to make your feet run heavy Make your heart unsteady Then it breaks, so I'm prayin' that you're feelin' the same You know I spent some time in Hollywood tryna find Something to get the thought of you and I off my mind So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start? Oh, and you know I would if I could Maybe I spend more time in Hollywood than I should So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start? If you can hear me, does it really have to end? I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when We'll go back to the start again If you can hear me, does it really have to end? I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when We'll go back to the start again You know I spent some time in Hollywood tryna find (If you can hear me, does it really have to end?) Something to get the thought of you and I off my mind (I feel you close, although you're eight hours ahead) So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart (If we can pick it up, just tell me where and when) Do you ever feel like goin' back? You know I spent some time in Hollywood tryna find Something to get the thought of you and I off my mind So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start? Oh, and you know I would if I could Maybe I spend more time in Hollywood than I should So tell me honey, oh, when you're just a step away from fallin' apart Do you ever feel like goin' back to the start?
