I'm Leavin' John Keller

verse 1
I reached deep inside my heart
Searching for the love I had for you
I couldn't find it and I give up
To think about the next thing I would do
I packed my bags and turned around
Wlking for the door again
I looked around and see your tears
Knowing this time it's the end. Yes..

Chorus
I'm Leavin' I'm Leavin' you behind
But I can't find a way to ease my mind

verse 2
I grabbed a cab into the city
Checked my watch to see the time
Traffic's jammed and backing up
I'll never make the airline
Catch the nine fifteen to Dallas
Fly first class all the way
As I drift off to sleep
I think about the things I had to say, like...

Chorus
Inst.
Chorus

verse 3
The dream I had it shook me hard
I knew I was wrong from the start
As we touched down I raced to call you
And say these things from my heart
I caught the first plane homeward bound
Couldn't wait till we would land
I ran into your sweet warm arms
To tell you these words you'll understand

Chorus 2
I'm Not Leavin' I'm Not Leavin' you behind
You're the only one I know to ease my mind

Chorus 2 repeat

You're the only one I know can eaee my mind.
