The Price of Leaving Lyrics

I left her standing by the old oak tree Chasing dreams and fancy cars

Yet another thought she'd set me free But freedom comes with scars

She had a smile that lit the darkest night New love seemed so real

But emptiness can't fill what's right I learned the hard way what to feel

Now I'm longing for those gentle hands And the love I left behind

It's too late for second chances Cause she's the one I couldn't find

I see her now, she's moved along Found a strength I never knew

She's happier and more strong While I'm lost searching for truth

Now I'm longing for those gentle hands And the love I left behind

It's too late for second chances Cause she's the one I couldn't find

I took the road that led to pain And the woman that's no good

Standing in the pouring rain Wishing she'd take me if she could

Now I'm longing for those gentle hands And the love I left behind

Now I'm longing for those gentle hands And the woman that's no good

Now I'm longing for those gentle hands And the woman that's no good
