It's never over 'til it's really over

And someone's left standing behind

It goes without sayin'

It's too late for stayin'

And leavin's been comin' for a long, long time



Chorus:

I packed up my suitcase and started my pickup

So many times in my mind

It's a hard road to travel

From blacktop to gravel

And the next hill is the hardest to climb



I've got all the answers for most of the questions

And some ain't been easy to find

There's no more erasin'

The things I've been facin'

And leavin's been comin' for a long, long time



Chorus



And leavin's been comin' for a long, long time
