Leave It All Behind

I have seen so much confusion
In everything I do
So many times can't seem to find
The strength to see it through
But that's all behind me now
No one's gonna find me

I've been right, I've been wrong
I've tried to sing too many songs
I've been bad, I've been good
I've learned to stand where others stood
I don't wanna be lonely, but I don't wanna crawl
I try to be faithful, but it's just too far to fall

All these things come back to me
So I turn around and leave it all behind
(Nothing to do that would ever make me stay)
Leave it all behind
(Heard it before, so there's nothing left to say)
Leave it all behind
Baby, I packed my bags, and I'll be moving on

I've been kind, I've been cruel
I've broken all the sacred rules
I've been black, I've been white
I never cared which side was right
I was looking for loving, but it never came around
I tried to listen, but I never heard a sound

You tell me I should follow
Then you smile and leave it all behind
(Nothing to do that would ever make me stay)
Leave it all behind
(Heard it before, so there's nothing left to say)
Leave it all behind
Baby, you packed my bags, the next day you were gone, gone

I was lost, now I'm found
Gonna reach for higher ground
Take my chances and take my time
'Til I've got what should be mine
You can tell me I'm crazy, but that's all in the past, yeah
I know I'm leaving, and I'm never, never coming back, no

Nothing here to ease your mind
Come with me, we'll leave it all behind
(Nothing to do that would ever make me stay)
Leave it all behind
(Heard it before, so there's nothing left to say)
Leave it all behind
Baby, pack your bags, leave it all behind

(Nothing to do that would ever make me stay)
Leave it all behind
(Heard it before, so there's nothing left to say)
Leave it all behind
(Nothing to do that would ever make me stay)
Leave it all behind
(Heard it before, so there's nothing left to say)
Leave it all behind
