Zach Bryan - Leaving Lyrics

It takes a hell of a heart
To know what a heart really needs
And I'm finding out that love
Ain't what loves cut out to be
If I was not my mamas boy
I'd leave you crying in this car
Punch a hole in your damn dashboard
And forget the girl you are

We've been fighting for so long
It'd be a shame to let this go
But I'd rather let it lie
Than hurt a sweet girl I know
And its getting dark now
So won't you just stay
And I'll tell you that I love you
'Til the leaving goes away

'Til the leaving leaves this house
No, we ain't going out
'Til I make some promises that I can't keep
And I wish I could explain how the toxins in my brain
Get me so damn down, that sometimes I can't speak
And you'll try to understand why I can't be a better man
But it's hard when I'm yelling at you in the street
So if leaving comes to staying
And you walk yourself away
Leave knowing that no one could
Love you more than me

And I hope the world don't mind
All the simple things I ask
Like a porch with good lighting
And to hear my lady laugh
And I'll act indifferent
Because I don't want to leave
Because leaving's for a younger man
That I don't want to be

'Til the leaving leaves this house
No, we ain't going out
'Til I make some promises that I can't keep
And I wish I could explain how the toxins in my brain
Get me so damn down, that sometimes I can't speak
And you'll try to understand why I can't be a better man
But it's hard when I'm yelling at you in the street
So if leaving comes to staying
And you walk yourself away
Leave knowing that no one could
Love you more than me
