You  know sometimes me and  my lady have these crazy fights
 And when we do, it makes me wonder  if we’re even gonna get  it right
 When I think about leaving,  I think about me
 What my life  would be like  if I were  back to being  free
 Where I wanna go,  what  I wanna do
 I wouldn’t  have a soul  I’d  have to answer to
  (5/b13) [Asus2] [B5] intro
 When I think about leaving... I think about me
 You know I’ve got a friend and him and his wife just couldn’t see eye to eye
 He had all he could stand one day and just packed up and said "goodbye"
 When I think about leaving I think about him
 And that little apartment ‘cross town he’s living in
 Got an old Corvette got a new girlfriend
 but he only sees his kids every other weekend
 When I think about leaving, oh I think about him
 I never will forget her face on the day she told me about her dad
How  he walked out on her  mom when she was just a kid
 When I think about leaving,  oh I think about her
 Only five  years old and her  heart filled up with hurt
 With her little arms  wrapped around his neck
 Saying "Daddy where you goin’?  Are you comin’  back?"
When  I think about leaving,  oh I think about her
 You know the truth is most of the time things are really great
 And I know we’ve got something special
 When I think about leaving, I think about us
 How we’re building this love we share on faith and trust
 The honest way we talk, the tender way we touch
 All those nights we spent makin’ love
 When I think about leaving, oh I think about us
 When I think about leaving, oh I think again
 Even though that thought crosses my mind every now and then
 In my heart I know I would never leave
 There’s nowhere else on earth that I would rather be
 When I think about leaving, I think again
 When I think about leaving
 When I think about leaving
   intro
 When I think about leaving, I think again
