[Verse 1]
It's pretty cold for late September
The autumn wind been creepin' in
The summer sun's packed up, it's long gone
There's a whole lot of leavin' going on, yeah

[Verse 2]
I hear it's warm in California (Oh yeah!)
I think it's time we hit the road
I just might call this band of gypsies
Go searching for our pot of gold

[Refrain]
Seems like, lately, there's a whole lot of leavin' going on

[Chorus]
I close my eyes, picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
Where I can find a reason to be strong
Seems like, lately, there's a whole lot of leaving going on

[Verse 3]
Well, close the window, draw the curtains
You ain't the only one here hurt
No one's right, no one's wrong
[Refrain]
Seems like, lately, there's a whole lot of leavin' going on

[Chorus]
I close my eyes, picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
Where I can find a reason to be strong
It seems like, lately, there's a whole lot of leaving going on
Whoo!
Uh, uh

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
You used to live to say you love me
Now, you got one foot of the door
It's then you turn around and ask me
"Do we got it anymore?"

[Spoken Word]
You got it!

[Chorus]
I close my eyes, picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice, it takes me back to that time
Where I can find a reason to be strong
I close my eyes, picture your hand in mine
Yeah, I wok the line, you'll never hear me say goodbye
So, pretty baby, please be strong
Seems like, lately, there's a whole lot of leaving going on

[Outro]
And I'll come back for you baby
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
