It's pretty cold for late September, and autumn wind is creepin' in The summer sun packed up, it's long gone There's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on
I bet it's warm in California, I think it's time to hit the road
I just might call that band of gypsies, both searchin' for a pot of gold
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
Where I could find a reason to be strong
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on
Close the window, draw the curtains, you ain't the only one here
No one's right, no one's wrong, lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
Where I could find a reason to be strong
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on
You used to live to say you loved me, now you got one foot out the door
Then you turn around and ask me, do we got it anymore?
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
Where I need a reason to be strong
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
Yeah, I walk the line, you'll never hear me say goodbye
So pretty baby, please be strong
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on
I'll come back for you baby
