Phoebe Hunt - Leaving Home Lyrics

Leaving Home
Phoebe Hunt (BMI), Matt Rollings (BMI) © 2010

To say one thing and mean another
To wear one ring but want a lover
I live a life that's under cover
It's all I've ever known
That's why I'm leaving home

Here I am an empty shell
When you're away I find myself
I cry each night, you watch me melt
I need to be alone
That's why I'm leaving home

Cnd every time I walk away I'm back before you see me go
You'll never know how many times I've tried
I'm locked inside each time I hear you say "I love you so"
I want to leave, but I don't want to say goodbye

There was a time it was amusing
How many years we both were losing
Why is this always so confusing?
It's hard to let you go
That's why I'm leaving home
