I'm Looking Forward To Leaving You Behind

From Paul: This song was written to cancer once I found out that my son is in remission. I will not miss you is the message, and that I look forward to when I don't have to look over my shoulder to see if it is trying to creep back up on us.

So now you’re gone.
I’ll bet you think my eyes are filled with tears.
And you are right.
But it’s not what you expect.
Cause they’re tears of joy and happiness
Not tears of pain and emptiness
You’ll never see me crying over you.

I’m looking forward to leaving you behind
To the day that I can say you’re never on my mind
No looking back, no shedding tears this time.
I’m looking forward to leaving you behind

So now you’re gone.
I’m moving on without the doubts and fears.
And doing fine.
Oh, I live with no regrets.
You know the fears I had, they came from you.
So when you left the fear left to.
No longer being scared that you’ll return.

I’m looking forward to leaving you behind
To the day that I can say you’re never on my mind
No looking back, no shedding tears this time.
I’m looking forward to leaving you behind

I never knew what freedom was
Until the day that you were gone.
I took the worst of you and made it through it all
I know I can go on.

I’m looking forward to leaving you behind
To the day that I can say you’re never on my mind
No looking back, no shedding tears this time.
I’m looking forward to leaving you behind
