Leavin Lyrics

Well, the first time that I went out on my own
I was a young man almost seventeen
Right down to the day
Well, I packed up all my things
I grabbed my bag and kissed my mother
And I told her that I'd be back some daySo I jumped into the back of an 18-wheeler
And ignored destination, didn't even ask
With the wisdom that my father gave me
Ringin' in my head so clearly
"Son, this world's gonna kick you in the ass"I wanna go there and I'm not scared
Our time's just begun, oh yeah
Life goes by so damn quickly for me
Wanna have some funNow, lookin' back on all the days gone by
I said, "I wonder what it would be like if I'd not went away"
Well, I see the world the way I do
The memories that brought me to
This place that I now call my home todayI wanna go there and I'm not scared
Our time's just begun, oh yeah

Life goes by so damn quickly for me
Wanna have some fun
Life goes by so damn quickly for me
Wanna have some funSo be in my head
(My head)
When I feel my whole world falls apart
In the end I'll be alright
Alright yeah, yeahWell, the first time that I went out on my own
I was a young man almost seventeen
Right down to the day
Well, I packed up all my things
I grabbed my bag and kissed my mother
And I told her that I'd be back some dayI wanna go there and I'm not scared
Our time's just begun, oh yeah
Life goes by so damn quickly for me
Wanna have some fun
Life goes by so damn quickly for me
Wanna have some fun
