Zac Brown Band - Leaving Love Behind lyrics

[Verse 1] Although the years have changed now And we go by different names I remember the sound of our roof in the rain And my mind goes back in time To a place so far gone Where the love we left behind us Was still new [Verse 2] We were listening to the record On the end of your bed Not giving thought to where it was all going And I wished right then and there so badly I could read your mind Just so I could know the things that you were knowing [Chorus] I believe, yes I do The hardest part is always leaving love behind I believe, yes I do That everything we lose Will be a gift in time But the hardest part is leaving love behind [Verse 3] When it was time to say goodbye Those words came down like stones I admit for so long after It was hard to feel at home We would hear the highway’s song Shifting down in the night I was grateful that the echoes broke the quiet [Chorus] I believe, yes I do The hardest part is always leaving love behind I believe, yes I do That everything we lose Will be a gift in time But the hardest part is leaving love behind [Verse 4] The sun fades on me now And I miss you like words can’t know And I missed my shot at dying young a long time ago It’s just a lesson learned in love It’s not angry it’s not sad Some time you have to lose something To know what you have [Chorus] I believe, yes I do The hardest part is always leaving love behind I believe, yes I do That everything we lose Will be a gift in time But the hardest part is leaving love behind
