(William Owsley, Tommy Sims & Amy Grant)
|
I took a drive along the west bank of the shore
|
I thought of what you said and then I thought some more
|
You say your life is all but chiseled out in stone
|
And all you want is just a taste of the unknown
|
|
Think it was yesterday I called you on the phone
|
You say you need a change, I recognized the tone
|
Buy me a ticket please, to anywhere I'll go
|
I'm not saying what is right or what is wrong
|
I'm just thinking you've been hanging here too long
|
|
So why don't we just up and leave it all behind
|
Maybe a change would ease your mind
|
For a time, Leave it all behind
|
|
What I really want to do is see you smile
|
Hear you talk and let me listen for a while
|
There's too much going on to keep it all inside
|
You try to whisper but you start to scream and shout
|
What you need is just a place to let it out
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
So why don't we just up and leave it all behind
|
Maybe a change would ease your mind, for a time
|
We will see if there's a place that we can go
|
Someplace that no one else will know how to find
|
Leave it all behind
|
|
You try to whisper but you start to scream and shout
|
What you need is just a place to let it out
|
|
[Chorus]
|

Leave It All Behind
