Leaving West Virginia

(アルバム： Walk The Way The Wind Blows - 1986)

Well, I'm leaving West Virginia in the morning
And I'm heading out that California way
I don't know what I'll find but baby it's my time
And I'll surely leave my heart below the Mason-Dixon line

I've seen a lot of folks 'round the street tonight
Can't seem to find the words to say goodbye
They're close enough to touch but speaking is too much
And goodbyes are heard without a word
And they're much more than enough

My mama and my daddy, they don't know what to say
They just can't bring themselves to understand
They think I run away, but to run would be to stay
'Cause the things you want are only worth the price you have to pay

And what is home but a place you keep within your heart
And call on when you need to be assured
A place where all you need to be is what you are
A past that in the present somehow makes you feel secure

Well, I'm leaving West Virginia in the morning
And I'm heading out California way
I don't know what I'll find but baby it's my time
And I'll surely leave my heart below the Mason-Dixon line
Yes, I'll surely leave my heart below the Mason-Dixon line
