There was a time I had to handle all myself
I forgot just how to speak and say my name
And I’m here alone
In this room that’s never cold
And it hurts me still
There was a time
I had this fear before I sang
No one told me I should do it for myself
So I took the mic
And I sang with all my heart
And I hope that they remember that
Oh not this time
I’m not gonna keep it quiet
I will open up the gates
And I hope that it will heal me
Oh my Lord
Please don’t let me be alone
Yeah I’m leaving town tomorrow
And I hope that it will heal me
Oooh yeah I’m leaving town tomorrow
And I hope that it will heal me
Overtime my heart has told me not to waste
Any minute more controlling myself
So I picked the one
With the saddest eyes of all
And I tried to get her off the shelf
Oh not this time
I’m not gonna keep it quiet
I will open up the gates
And I hope that it will heal me
Oh my Lord
Please don’t let me be alone
Yeah I’m leaving town tomorrow
And I hope that it will heal me
Oooh yeah I’m leaving town tomorrow
And I hope that it will heal me
Oh not this time
I’m not gonna keep it quiet
I will open up the gates
And I hope that it will heal me
Oh my Lord
Please don’t let me be alone
Yeah I’m leaving town tomorrow
And I hope that it will heal me
Oooh yeah I’m leaving town tomorrow
And I hope that it will heal me
