I’m Leaving Your World (A Better Place To Live)

[Verse 1]
Oh, I'm taking all the loneliness
I'm not leaving any sad regrets
I'll wash my memories from the hallways of your mind
And the way you should remember me
Is like a page in history
'cause I'm leaving your world a better place to live

[Chorus]
Walk through the roses in the garden
Before the morning sun is shining
Where you gave me every reason I had to live
That ain't dew on the petals
It's the tears I lost while leaving
While leaving your world a better place to live

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
If you see a shadow along the highway
That's just me a-going my way
'cause I'm too proud to show my place in the sun
And with evening coming on
Like a shadow, I'll soon be gone
'cause I'm leaving your world a better place to live

[Chorus]
Walk through the roses in the garden
Before the morning sun is shining
Where you gave me every reason I had to live
That ain't dew on the petals
It's just tears I lost while leaving
While leaving your world a better place to live
