Leaving Home Ain'T Easy

I take a step outside
And I breathe the air
And I slam the door
And I'm on my way

I won't lay no blame
I won't call you names
'Cause I've made my break
And I won't look back
I've turned my back
On those endless games

I'm all through with ties
I'm all tired of tears
I'm a happy man
Don't it look that way?
Shaking dust from my shoes
There's a road ahead
And there's no way back home

Oh, but I have to say
Leaving home ain't easy
Oh, I never thought it would be easy
Leaving on your own
Oh, there's a million things are calling me back
Leaving home ain't easy
On the one you're leaving home

Stay, my love, my love, please stay
Stray, my love, what's wrong my love?
What's right my love?

Oh, leaving home ain't easy
I thought, "How could I think of leaving?"
Leaving on your own
Still trying to persuade me that
Leaving home ain't necessary
Leave the only way

Leaving home ain't easy
But may be the only way
