Thinking About Leaving Lyrics

Dwight Yoakam Thinking About Leaving

I used to think love was the soft rope meant to tie me down
And all that could ever own me was a guitar and another town
Ten years can disappear real fast
When every morning just leaves somewhere else behind
But I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind

Lyin' here beside you I can feel it start to pull me away
The thought I'll have again tomorrow that just came back from yesterday
But your embrace makes any reason for those memories hard to find
And I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind

Sometimes I miss the warm, bright lights sometimes I miss the crowds
Sometimes I miss the women I wrapped each song around
Sometimes I miss that world out there so empty hard and unkind
But I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind

Sometimes I miss the warm, bright lights sometimes I miss the noise
Sometimes I miss the fading sounds of every cheering voice
Sometimes I miss that world out there so empty hard and unkind
But I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind

And I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind
