Song for Leaving Lyrics by THE NINTH WAVE

HEAVY LIKE A HEADACHE

2022

[Verse 1]
I'm sorry that I never found the words to say goodbye
Baby blonde, I hear those tears behind closed doors
But we both have to try
He never wanted this to make you cry
Your flesh edges closer to the bone
Baby, you have your fathers eyes
[Chorus]
If we break apart
Would you pick up or replace
All of the parts
Of the people you’ve erased?
If we break apart
Could you recognise your facе?
I know it's hard
Because you have your fathеrs eyes
[Verse 2]
I'm sorry that I never found the path to lead you by
Continue as I am, I’ll only let you down
And there's more that we share than both of our absent minds
Don't disown him, just as he disowned his own
He hurts inside, you can't buy back lost time
You can't buy back lost time
[Harmonising - Millie]
[Chorus]
If we break apart
Would you pick up or replace
All of the parts
Of the people you've erased?
If we break apart
Could you recognise your face?
I know it's hard
Because you have your fathers eyes
[Outro]
You have your fathers eyes
You have his eyes
Your fathers eyes, your fathers eyes
