Daddy lost his job today
Mama says we'll move away
I'll say goodbye to all my friends
Fight the tears that I hold inIts hard to leave where you've always been
Pack up and think you can't go back again
Hold on to everything
O how do you begin
When your leaving where you always beenMama baked my wedding cake
Daddy tried to hide the ache
But if he knew I felt it too
He would help us both get through
It's hard to leave where you've always been
Pack up and think you can't go back again
Hold on to everything
O how do you begin
When your leaving where you always beenOh, oh, oh
Life is full of changes rearranges and regrets
But love will find your peace of mind
And you will not forget,
Oh, no you won't forgetMy children say to let it go
Daddy's gone you've grown old
Say goodbye to bricks and walls
The memories within the hallsIt's hard to leave where you've always been
Pack up and think you can't go back again
It's hard to leave where you've always been
Pack up and think you can't go back again
Hold on to everything
O how do you begin
When your leaving where you always been?
