That Leaving Feeling

Stuart:

I get that leaving feeling

This time it's here to stay

I've been weighing up the pulling

And pushing me away

The past is so heavy

But it's something that I can't leave

And this future's so certain

It just pushes me to my knees

Lhasa:

Is that your heart talking

Or just that befuddled mind?

The people that you love

They change when you leave them behind

Stuart:

But this rope that is pulling

Is whittled down to a thread

And if I don't start climbing

Pretty soon it'll be over my head

Lhasa:

We all have dreams of leaving

We all wanna make a new start

Go and pack a little suitcase

With the pieces of our hearts

All those worries and those sorrows

We can just dust them away

Buy a coffee and a paper

And go step on to a train

(Bridge)

Stuart:

But I've been too long wandering

Limping around this town

With everything that's pulling me

It's pulling me further down

Lhasa:

Go make all your excuses

Go say all your goodbyes

But take a look in the mirror

It's the hardest one you'll ever find

All those worries and those sorrows

You can just dust them away

Go and find a new tomorrow

And forget about your yesterdays

So go and pat your kids

And kiss your dog goodbye

Leave the keys on the nail

With the sadness that's in your eyes

Stuart:

Maybe tomorrow

Today looks like it's bringing rain

And I'll leave everything in order

I don't want nothing standing in my way

There are jobs needing tending

And the logs that are waiting to stack

And I'll leave everything in order

I don't want nothing [that]'s gonna hold me back
