I'm leaving now   Sixteen years and comes to this   Parting lines and a final kiss   Your hands are shaking   A cab waits in the rain   Now I've never felt more alone   I can't believe that these days are gone   After all that we've begun   You say you'll be there   I just have to call   Must you choose between    Me and all your dreams   When you can be free right here with me   Those sixteen years   Don't they mean anything to you   How can you leave   With so much to loose   When you walk away   You're taking the morning from my day   Show me the pain   That's inside of you   I need to understand   Sixteen years now my thoughts run wild   How you held me like a child   I'll fight these tears    But I can hide the way I feel   When you find what you want   Isn't it all you need   With you wanna run right back to me   Those sixteen years   Don't they mean anything to you   How can you leave   There's so much to loose   Oh when you walk away   You're taking the morning form my day   Show me the pain that's inside of you   Time moves on   And you'll be gone   And I hold on to the finer things   I need to keep me strong   But one sweet day   We'll put them all away    I'll hope you know that no one stays the same   Those sixteen years   Don't they mean anything to you   How can you leave   There's so much to loose   Yeah   When you walk away   You're taking the morning from my day   Show me the pain that's inside of you   I need to understand   Someday you'll understand   Yes you will
