lyrics

I can’t be that man no more
The same one that for years before
He never put a footstep out of place
So I packed up my suitcase
There were hugs and there were handshakes
Now I’m starting over, half the world away

I’m miles away from all I’ve known
I’m waiting for this place to feel like home
I changed for the sake of changing
I tried to stay, now I’ll try leaving

I put my things up on the shelf
These things belong to somewhere else
I should water the flowers instead of watering the weeds
I need to make new memories
Treasures that I’ll long to keep
And these strangers, these strangers are just friends I’ve yet to meet

I’m miles away from all I’ve known
I’m waiting for this place to feel like home
I changed for the sake of changing
I tried to stay, so now I’ll try leaving

I got nothing but love for those I left
Those I left behind
No I’ve got nothing but love for those I left
Those I left behind me

I’m miles away from all I’ve known
Tonight this place, well it feels like home
I changed for the sake of changing
But I think I’ll stay; I think I’m done leaving
