Left it all Behind

You’re knocking on the door of my heart again,
How many times before have I let you in?
But don’t come knocking now—
I don’t live there anymore.
Too many heartaches
And too many heartbreaks
I know that I won’t rebuild this time
If it all falls to pieces
I won’t even know
Cause I’ve left it all behind.



When I was young, love was in my heart
I dared to make many fresh new starts
But I’m older now
And love has not been kind.
Too many heartaches
And too many heartbreaks
Too many broken dreams this time
Let it crumble to dust
Let the cold wind blow through
Cause I’ve left it all behind.



You’re knocking on the door of my heart again,
But this time no one answers to let you in
There’s no key to use
And no one lives there anymore.
Too many heartaches
And too many heartbreaks
There’s nothing left to say this time
When there’s nothing to keep
And there’s nothing to lose
You just leave it all behind.
You just leave it all behind.
