Maybe I've been caught up in my feelings lately Thinking about how the time has changed me Being alone And thunder It came crashing down to pull me under Causing me to doubt the ways I wonder But this much I know I'm not far from home You taught me how to walk and how to stand You taught me how to be a better man You made me feel like I wasn't alone When I left home When I left home This journey Hiding from you all the ways it hurt me I don't want for you to have to worry I'm fine alone I'm stronger I think that I can wait a little longer I'll write about it in another song for The world to know These words from long ago They keep telling me Don't you let this go You taught me how to walk and how to stand You taught me how to be a better man You made me feel like I wasn't alone When I left home And lately you've been on my weary mind I used to run away but now it's fine I hope you never had to feel alone When I left home When I left home Maybe we could sit just for a while Maybe we could stop and share a smile Soon I have to get back on the road, but you should know You're the reason I can walk and I can stand You're the reason I became a better man I never should've let you feel alone when I left home You're always gonna be right on my mind I used to run away but healed with time I hope you weren't afraid to love alone When I left home I hope you found someone to call your own When I left home When I left home
