Verse 1:
If my intention was to stay and look at this a different way
I'd never leave this life behind
If this is where I had to be with everything I'd ever need
Then why do I have leaving on my mind?

Verse 2:
I know that I could make it through doing what you need me to
But I'd be living with a lie
It's never easy to confess when freedom turns to loneliness
I guess that's why there's leaving on my mind

Chorus:
Leaving on my mind
Leaving on my mind
So many things I need to find
(So many things I need to find)
Leaving on my mind

Verse 3:
It seems a different point of view has made me realize what's true
And there's no reason to deny
This could be my worst mistake but that's a chance I have to take
Now that I have leaving on my mind

Chorus:
Leaving on my mind
Leaving on my mind
So many things I need to find
(So many things I need to find)
Leaving on my mind
Leaving on my mind
Leaving on my mind
(Leaving on my mind)
So many things I need to find
(So many things I need to find)
Leaving on my mind

Leaving on my mind

If my intention was to stay and look at this a different way
I'd never leave this life behind
