Leave Him Behind
Why don't you leave him behind
He's just another state of mind
It's just a matter of time
Before he fades away
Take the monkey off your back
Put his presents in a sack
You know you're on a better track
Now you don't have to stay
There's another road to run
And all the songs you've sung
Like the smoke inside your lungs
That never floats away
It takes time to get it right
You know it's love at just first sight
And there are times you'll have to fight
To make it through the day
But you know that you are strong
He always got you wrong
And every time you got along
Was just a price to pay
So climb down from that cross
You ain't got to look so lost
And all the chains you tossed
Just to get away
Why don't you leave him behind
It's just another state of mind
And it's a matter of time
Before he fades away
He's just another state of mind
It's just a matter of time
Before he fades away
Take the monkey off your back
Put his presents in a sack
You know you're on a better track
Now you don't have to stay
There's another road to run
And all the songs you've sung
Like the smoke inside your lungs
That never floats away
It takes time to get it right
You know it's love at just first sight
And there are times you'll have to fight
To make it through the day
But you know that you are strong
He always got you wrong
And every time you got along
Was just a price to pay
So climb down from that cross
You ain't got to look so lost
And all the chains you tossed
Just to get away
Why don't you leave him behind
It's just another state of mind
And it's a matter of time
Before he fades away
