Song About Leaving
Maybe it doesn’t matter
Maybe you are right
But just because you can do me harm
Doesn’t make it right
This is not about me
And this is not about you
This is about goodbye
This is about the truth
Chorus:
Don’t say a word
Please don’t say anything
It’s just a song
About leaving
It doesn’t mean a thing
Try to remember
When you were young
There was somebody looking over you
Who didn’t do you wrong
They didn’t do you wrong
A year or so from now
You won’t even remember me
I guess for people like you forgetting
Comes with the territory
For that higher calling
Details must be lost
Keep that so called faith
No matter what the cost
Chorus:
Don’t say a word
Please don’t say anything
It’s just a song
About leaving
It doesn’t mean a thing
Try to remember
When you were young
There was somebody looking over you
Who didn’t do you wrong
They didn’t do you wrong
Giving up on your dreams
Really isn’t all that tough
Once you realize
Doing good just isn’t good enough
Never can get ahead
By doing what’s right
You can drive yourself crazy
Or you can say goodbye
Chorus:
Don’t say a word
Please don’t say anything
It’s just a song
About leaving
It doesn’t mean a thing
