[Verse 1]
God knows things could be worse
But it's hard seeing you age
The man once I knew staring back at me
Baby things sure ain't the same
I'm trying to be better
Working to understand
The changes you're making
To be a better man
I'm still listening, I'm still loving
I'm still listening, we still struggling
[Chorus]
Hard truths biting my heels
These roots have no home
The only way I know you love me
Is when you leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
[Verse 2]
No one taught me better than you
There will be highs and there will be lows
Not a lot has to change
Things just can't stay the same
[Chorus]
Hard truths biting my heels
These roots have no home
Only way I know you love me
Is when you leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
[Bridge]
I assumed too little
And we lost too much
When it comes to love
A lesson learned isn't learned enough
I was damaged
You were exposed
When it comes to love
When it comes to love
When it comes to love
A lesson learned isn't learned enough
[Chorus]
Hard truths biting my heels
These roots have no home
Only way I know you love me
Is when you leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone
[Outro]
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Please just leave me alone
Alone, alone, alone
