Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes - Leaving Behind lyrics

Leaving Behind

(J. Lyon/M. Noble)

That sun on't wait, it's going down

I can hear that train just outside of town

You better think, think

Think of what we're leaving behind

I think about it, girl

Unmade bed, unpaid debts

A hundred thousand small regrets

Yea think, think

Just think of what we're leaving behind

That train is pulling out for good this time

The whistle echoes right across my mind

You know we ain't got one good reason to stay

So take my hand, baby

Cause we're running away

We're running away

All the hurt and the bitter tears

You and I've collected, baby, through the years

I say we lay ‘em down on these railroad tracks

And let the 2:19 train blow the monkey off my back

Cause it's leaving now, baby

And that's what we're leaving behind

Think what we're leaving, baby

Think yea yea what we're leaving, baby

I want you to think what we're leaving, baby

Think about it, girl

Think what we're leaving, baby
