Lyrics Hayes Carll

Hayes Carll

Leave Here Standing

Don't take me down that road again

I been there once before my friend

It seems I've lost near everything

And I can't lose no more

Well dreams are made for restless hearts

I should have known that right from the start

That every lover plays their part

Or the whole thing comes undone

And I know I'll leave here standing

That's just the way it's always been

I'm scared I'll close my eyes and then

I'll never look on you no more

Oh sweet angel it's time to go

The summer rains are winter snow

And I just wanted you to know

I miss you when you're gone

So take a breath and ease your mind

Go on and leave the past behind

Some things you won't ever find

Looking way too long

And I know I'll leave here standing

That's just the way it's always been

I'm scared I'll close my eyes and then

I'll never look on you no more
