House Of Heroes - Leave You Now Lyrics

Ten long years I've spent in the sun
Well, I broke my back to avoid the gun
But I never cracked, I never gave you up
I just did my time for you

Yeah, I can't leave you now
Yeah, I got no where to go anyhow

When you sleep don't dream of me
I don't wanna break your heart till I'm breaking free
When I get out I'm gonna run with ya
We're gonna make it our way to America

Yeah, I can't leave you now
Yeah, I got no where to go anyhow

Yeah, I can't leave you now
(Ten long years I've spent in the sun)
(Well, I broke my back to avoid the gun)

Yeah, I got no where to go anyhow
(But I never cracked, I never gave you up)
(I just did my time for you)

They can call me public enemy, brand my skin for treachery
But what they long to have they can't take away from me

My hope is growing by the power of love
The highest wall that they erect is not a prison enough
And like the river that is winding takes it's water to sea
The only ending that is fitting is you and me, baby

Oh yeah, I can't leave you now
Yeah, I got no where to go anyhow

Yeah, I can't leave you now
(When you sleep don't dream of me)
(I don't wanna break your heart till I'm breaking free)

Yeah, I got no where to go anyhow
(When I get out I'm gonna run with ya)
(We're gonna make it our way to America)
