You Never Leave My Heart - Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors

I was standing on the sidewalk, the wind swept me off the ground

Flying like an airplane, felt like the speed of sound

Past the moon, through the darkness, it took me back in time

I landed on my old front porch, in 1999

There was joy in the kitchen, but sadness in the eyes

All the people standing around, telling stories I recognize

Almost 20 years since the last time we spoke

We were eating at the airport.

I was laughing at your jokes

And you, you never leave my heart

You never leave my heart

I saw myself talking to old friends, that I haven’t seen in years

One moved away to LA, one’s a real estate financier

The reverend held court in the corner.

Mom cried with all who came

When I went to bed that evening, I had never felt so strange

And you, you never leave my heart

You never leave my heart

I disappeared back into the darkness, the wind flew me home

Still standing on the sidewalk, confused and alone

It’s always a benediction, to be reminded that you’re gone

You’re a truth and a fiction, a vision and a song

And you, you never leave my heart

You never leave my heart

You never leave my heart

You never leave my heart

You never leave my heart

You never leave my heart

You never leave my heart
