God knows things could be worse
But it's hard seeing you age
The man I once knew staring back at me
Baby things sure ain't the sameI'm trying to be better
Working to understand
The changes you're making
To be a better manI'm still listening i'm still loving
I'm still listening we're still strugglingHard truths bite my heels
These roots have no home
The only way I know you love me
Is when you leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
Won't you leave me aloneNo one taught me better than you
There will be highs and there will be lows
Not a lot has to change
Things just can't stay the sameHard truths bite my heels
These roots have no home
The only way I know you love me
Is when you leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
Won't you leave me aloneI assumed too little
And we lost too much
When it comes to love
A lesson learned isn't learned enoughI was damaged
You were exposed
When it comes to love
When it comes to love
When it comes to love
A lesson learned isn't learned enoughHard truths bite my heels
These roots have no home
The only way I know you love me
Is when you leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
Won't you leave me alonePlease just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Alone
Alone
Alone
