Aways Hurts

Mina Okabe

Compositor: Mina Okabe Jensen / Leroy James Clampitt

I've really been sorry
Commitment comes and goes
I try to be realistic
'Cause leaving is all I know

Moving from places
I've called home
And leaving what I knew
But it's been okay 'cause
Nothing really lasts

Although it hurts when I let go
I know how to say goodbye
It always hurts when I let go
But I don't let them see me cry
I've learned it
Gone through it
Does practice make perfect
It hurts when I let go
But the feeling I'd get
If you left
I don't want to know
I don't want to know

You've always been patient
'Cause it can take some time
To really say how I'm feeling
Now you just read my mind

Through all the phases
And changes
And all that we've been through
You're someone I can rely on
I know that's hard to find

Although it hurts when I let go
I know how to say goodbye
It always hurts when I let go
But I don't let them see me cry
I've learned it
Gone through it
Does practice make perfect
It hurts when I let go
But the feeling I'd get
If you left
I don't want to know
I don't want to know

It always hurts leaving behind
But I don't cry about it
Practiced it one too many times
Now it's just automatic

Cause I've learned it
Gone through it
Does practice make perfect
It hurts when I let go
It hurts when I let go
It hurts when I let go
But the feeling I'd get
If you left
I don't want to know
I don't want to know
