Leaving Home Ain't Easy

[Verse 1] I take a step outside and I breathe the air And I slam the door and I'm on my way I won't lay no blame, I won't call you names 'Cause I've made my break and I won't look back I've turned my back on those endless games [Verse 2] I'm all through with ties, I'm all tired of tears I'm a happy man, don't it look that way? Shaking dust from my shoes, there's a road ahead And there's no way back home (No way back home) Oh, but I have to say [Chorus] Leaving home ain’t easy Oh, I never thought it would be easy Leaving on your own Oh, there's a million things a-calling me back Leaving home ain’t easy On the one you're leaving home [Bridge] Stay, my love My love, please stay Don't stray, my love What's wrong, my love? What's right, my love? [Chorus] Leaving home ain’t easy My God, how could I think of leaving? Leaving on your own Still trying to persuade me that Leaving home ain’t necessarily the only way [Outro] Leaving home ain’t easy But may be the only way
