Lyrics You Never Leave My Heart - Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors

You Never Leave My Heart

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
