lyrics

Leave the town

I have to leave the town for good today
I have to leave the town, 'cause I can not stay
I'm running away from my broken dreams
Life just ain't what it seems
I have to leave the town
I have to leave the scene

People in this place don't want me back
There's a lady I'm a leaving, it's kind of sad
A patient man I'll be one day
I'd lose my mind if I'd have stay
I have to leave the town
I have to go away

If you play with fire you're bound to get burned
'till the flames die down and the winds have turned
Now I'm gone not to return
What's left behind is left to burn
I have to leave the town
With a hard lesson to be learned

Oh, I'm going, I'm going,
I'm going, I'm going away

Me and this place go a long way back
The good times are gone and they won't come back
Things have changed and so it always goes
I'm going some place where no one knows
I have to leave the town
I'm going to where the wind blows

I'm sick and tired of shedding these tears
I'm sick and tired of the same old fears
I got a rock 'n' roll car, songs to play
Leave my cage in the land of pain
I have to leave the town
Won't let my soul be betrayed

Oh, I'm going, I'm going,
I'm going, I'm going away
