I take a step outside And I breath 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 I'm all through with ties I'm all tired of tears I'm a happy man Don't it look that way Shakin' 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 Leavin' home ain't easy Oh I never thought it would be easy Leavin' on your own Oh is the main thing calling me back Leavin' home ain't easy On the one you're leavin' home Stay my love my love please stay Stray my love what's wrong my love? What's right my love? Oh leavin' home ain't easy I thought how could I think of leavin' Leavin' on your own Still tryin' to persuade me that Leavin' home ain't necessarily the only way Leavin' home ain't easy But may be the only way
