Leave Me Again

I hope you're spending Christmas with your family
I hope you're writing songs that you love
I hope you're feeling happier than you've ever been
And I hope I never leave me again

I hope you're hiking that old trail in West Meade
And I hope you and Jane are talking more
I hope the top is off the Jeep, and you're driving in the wind
And I hope I never leave me again

For a while the shoe fit
But then I outgrew it
And staying only made me get real good at pretend
So, I hope I never leave me again

I hope to remember all the pieces
Of who I was that I lost on the way
I hope I learn to love myself like I loved you then
And I hope I never leave me again

For a while the shoe fit, yeah
But then I outgrew it
And staying only made me get real good at pretend
So, I hope I never leave me again, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

I hope when I see you that you smile
I hope that you find somebody new
I hope that you get the house and the good wife and the kids
And I hope I never leave me again
Yeah, I hope I never leave me again
