Mountains to Climb

Tears fall on the kitchen floor
Like rain from your eyes
Your bags are packed and by the door
I guess this is goodbye
You can't blame me for loving you
You made it easy from the start
All the pain I put you through
There's still a halo around your heart

You came here with an open mind
And a suitcase full of doubt
The toxic world you left behind
Had turned you inside out
I can't blame you for leaving now
You found your freedom and that's a start
Memories won't disappear
But they don't have to tear you apart

Don't walk away
Every day there are mountains to climb
You want to run and hide
But you can't, no you can't
There'll come a day when we can say
What we both know inside
That you will always be a part of me

Don't walk away
Every day there are mountains to climb
You want to run and hide
But you can't, no you can't
There'll come a day when we can say
What we both know inside
That you will always be a part of me

So go and find your place
Without fear, without hate
And fill the empty space with love
Know that I'm here counting the years
But I won't disappear from your life
I won't disappear
You leave here with an open heart
And a pocketful of dreams

No one else can play your part
It's harder than it seems
Don't look back on anything
It's a waste of precious time
See the world, try everything
'Cause when you're happy then you're alive

Don't walk away
Every day there are mountains to climb
You want to run and hide
But you can't, no, no you can't
There'll come a day when we can say
What we both know inside
That you will always be a part of me
