[Verse

We gather in bars, toasting to the years that pass,

Oh, I’m in love with you, though you’ll never ask.

But if I can’t be with you, I’ll face this life alone,

I’ll shield you from the storms and let the rivers flow

[Chorus

leave it all behind,

Can’t you see what I can give you?

I can’t keep this heart from racing,

Set my midnight sadness free.

I’ll give you everything I am,

Just leave him for me, take my hand.

Leave him, leave him for me.

[Verse

I don’t have much to offer, but I don’t need gold,

What’s the point of money if you’re longing to be held?

I don’t have a plan, just drifting down this road,

Waiting for you to pull me close and out of the cold.

You’ll never know the lonely nights or the whispers of the rain’s

Or what it feels like to fall behind, hearing you call his name.

[Chorus

leave it all behind,

Can’t you see what I can give you?

I can’t keep this heart from racing,

Set my midnight sadness free.

I’ll give you everything I am,

Just leave him for me, take my hand.

Leave him, leave him for me.
