John Leon - still leaving you behind Lyrics

Woke in the middle of the day, dear
With you heavy on my mind
I have nothing more to say, I fear
I drowned all my thoughts last night
You don't have to pretend to worry
Not trying to send you no more signs
Just trying to find my way through here
I'm still leaving you behind
That mourning dove's sweet crooning
I know her song so well
Kept my lonely shuffle stumbling
Parted some shadow with her spell
But that songbird is roaming
Wanderlust under each quill
Reminds me of you daily
As she's leaving me behind
I'm still leaving you behind
I'm still leaving you behind
I just haven't found the time
But I'm
I'm still leaving you behind
Still see you in the dew drops
Those twilights tears that sometimes fell
It's not that I'm an early riser
I still can't find my sleep so well
Not searching for you down in the mines
Gems are hard enough to find
The first time
Just here by myself moaning
As I'm leaving you behind
We were stardust in the maelstrom
Poetry refused to rhyme
Shot out of a hailstorm
Fire starved ne'er-do-wells in the mire
But I would give it all for one more run
But crazy rivers only cross
Just once
'Till we pass this way again
I'm still leaving you behind
'Till we pass this way, my friend
I'm still leaving you behind
