Hard to Leave Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Out pour tears
"Miss you dear"s
Late night calls of longing
Pressing play
On Marvin Gaye
Trying to right the wrongings
Softly reaching over for your touch upon my sleeve
It's always hard, so hard to leave

[Verse 2]
Just got in
How've you been?
You haven't aged a day
Look at us now
Remember when
We've come a long, long way
We tell ourselves stories only we can believe
It's always hard, so hard to leave

[Bridge]
I blame myself to avoid taking the blame
But if I didn't go
I may never know
And that would be such a shame

[Verse 3]
Grab ahold of the days
Before the days grab ahold of you
Give it an extra, extra minute
Or maybe a few
I'm passing through time like a warm summer breeze
It's always hard, so hard to leave
It's always hard, so hard to leave
