Stephen Kellogg – You Don't Look The Same When You're Leaving lyrics

You couldn't relate to me then because I wasn't as quick with my jokes
And I'd barely escaped from my childhood bed, there were so many people that
I didn't know then

But I was leaving
I was leaving and that held appeal to you
I was leaving
And when you're leaving, others feel it too

You said, "you don't look the same when you're leaving."
At least that's what I think that you said
There were so many things I was feeling
I was scared and confused and I mostly felt bad

But I was leaving
I was leaving and I found some comfort there
I was leaving
Too stupid or too brave to care

And I don't care where they go
It's all these things that I've let go
And I know how it seemed then, but I'm still bleeding
And I don't care who knows
I don't care

So the day has finally come to settle up
And I'm quicker with my words, but it never is enough
And The ones I used to know were so conceited
I thought of them then, but I never will again, why did I think of you then?

Cause you were leaving
You were leaving and that held appeal to me
You were leaving
And when you're leaving you get thought of constantly
