I'll Be Leaving Soon Lyrics

A passel of old memories

And they're fading fast

Nothing but this moment

From all that's come to past

Trying to hang on too

Maybe a good one or two

If I can remember

The good times get you through

The lonely ness and the heartache

The dark side of the moon

I'm just passing through this town

I'll be leaving soon

I'll be leaving soon

Lovers in the shadows

And children in the street

A different world around me

And underneath my feet

There's ghost upon each should

I carry where I go

A lost and broken moment

Now so long ago

They echo in that silence

Like half forgotten tune

I'm just passing through this town

I'll be leaving soon

I'll be leaving soon

Leaning on a building

With a guitar in my hand

Been trying to make me a dollar

Before I find me another plan

My pockets damn near empty

And my hearts just a little down

What passes her for main street

In this old busted town

There's nothing for me lord

There's nothing left to do

I'm just passing through this town

I'll be leaving soon

I'll be leaving soon

Its cold and quiet

In this old town tonight

It's dark and still as a tomb

Nobody's here but me

And this lonely old moon

I'm just passing through this town

I'll be leaving soon

I'll be leaving soon
