And I know it's time to leave They gave their lives to me I made songs about how much I disliked that place Looking back touched by sweet sadness Leaving home and seeking out Kiss my past goodbye and turn to walk out of their will It's time to leave! Yeah! I can't deny it was holding me back And I can't deny I was kept of track And I don't know why I shouldn't leave I can't deny I was blinded by love And I can't deny I needed that shove I don't know why I shouldn't leave And I don't know why I shouldn't leave It's time to leave (And leave this world alone) It's time to leave (And leave this world alone) It's time to (leave) Leave It's time to leave (And leave this world alone) It's time to leave (And leave this world alone) It's time to (leave) Leave As a child I was protected by love As a child I got careless of love So, I don't know why I shouldn't leave But now I'm free to do what I want And now I'm free to think on my own I don't know why I shouldn't leave So, I don't know why I shouldn't leave C'mon It's time to leave (And leave this world alone) It's time to leave (And leave this world alone) It's time to (leave) Leave It's time to leave (And leave this world alone) It's time to leave (And leave this world alone) It's time to (live) Live And I know it's time to leave They gave their lives to me I made songs about how much I disliked that place It's time to leave
