Leaving lyrics

That cold autumn day when I went away

To Shannon and onto the US of A

I`ll never forget the look in your eyes

When I hugged you and kissed you and told you goodbye



When I looked at you knowing that I had to go

It`s a pain that I prayed that you never would know

But you were too young still to understand why

Someone who loved you could bid you goodbye.



chorus: Wherever I wander, wherever I stray

It`s a piece of me now that forever will stay

It`s part of me heart that is locked away

And stays with you forever.



It seemed for a moment the moment stood still

If hold it I could by the force of my will

But I turned and I left then and all I could see

Was the sight of you there and you looking at me



What once was a household was long torn apart

Now like the ocean`s the rift in my heart

And I long for the day when with all of its charms

We`ll be back together with you in my arms.
