Leaving Home Lyrics - Singles - Katie Armiger

I put the locket you gave me in a shoe box 

With all my favorite high school pictures in a ziplock 

So when I think about myself and all that I'm not 

Thanks for the extra cash 

Please take good care of dad 

I promise you I'll call along the way 

Mama, don't you cry 

I'm movin' on but know this ain't goodbye 

We might be miles apart, I'll carry you in my heart 

I'll send you kisses on the phone but mama 

I'm leaving home 

In only four months I'll be comin' home for Christmas 

I bet that all the time will fly, you know how it does 

Maybe I'll go and find a nice guy and fall in love 

I'll do my best to make you proud 

Keep my room safe for now 

Just in case these big dreams don't work out 

Mama, don't you cry 

I'm movin' on but know this ain't goodbye 

We might be miles apart, I'll carry you in my heart 

I'll send you kisses on the phone but mama 

I'm leaving home 

We always 

knew this day would come 

And as bad as you wanna hold on 

We both know it's time to let go 

(To let go) 

Mama, don't you cry 

I'm movin' on but know this ain't goodbye 

Mama, don't you cry 

I'm movin' on but know this ain't goodbye 

We might be miles apart, I'll carry you in my heart 

I'll send you kisses on the phone but mama 

I'm leaving home 

I'm leaving home 

I'm leaving home
