Leaving Me Behind

by Anne Reburn

/

lyrics

I know they were talking ‘bout me in this town
Before I ever arrived
But you’ll never truly know me
If you’ve already made up your mind

Take my turn to speak
And lock away my voice
And throw away the key
Oh, I know you’re

Leaving me, leaving me
Leaving me behind
I know you’re
Leaving me, leaving me
Leaving me behind

You come with a first impression
You’ve decided you know who I am
Closed doors and my apprehension
That you’ll never give me a chance

Take my turn to speak
And lock away my voice
And throw away the key
Oh, I know you’re

Leaving me, leaving me
Leaving me behind
I know you’re
Leaving me, leaving me
Leaving me behind

It’s for the best that I don’t know
Just how those conversations go
But it still hurts to be on the outside

And I’m so scared I’ll never get to show
That who I am is so much more than what you think you know
And I’m so scared I’ll never get to show
That who I am is more than what you know

I know you’re leaving me, leaving me
Leaving me behind
I know you’re leaving me, leaving me
Leaving me behind
It’s for the best that I don’t know
(I know they were talking ‘bout me)
Just how those conversations go
(In this town)
But it still hurts to be on the outside
(Before I ever arrived, before I ever arrived)

I know you’re leaving me, leaving me
(It’s for the best that I don’t know)
Leaving me behind
(Just how those conversations go)
I know you’re leaving me, leaving me
(But it still hurts to be on the outside)
Leaving me behind
I know you’re leaving me, leaving me
(I know they were talking ‘bout me)
Leaving me behind
I know you’re leaving me, leaving me
(In this town before I ever arrived)
Leaving me behind
