New Direction

(Chorus)
Baby,
Don’t you ever leave me
I know that it aint easy
We can take in a new direction
Baby,
How could you release me
You’re the only one who sees
The beauty in my imperfections

I’m sorry but I’m through
Cause I can’t get to you

I’m headed in a new direction

I’ve wasted all my time
Done nothin’ but lose my mind

I’m headed in a new direction

But you say

(Chorus)

I know we’ve played that game
Before, but now it’s not the same

I gotta head in a new direction

This thing has run It’s course
And now I’ve got no choice

There was never love in the equation

But you say,

(Chorus)

On the other side it’s bright
I’m needing day instead of night
Truth over a dream
Whispers instead of screams
Kisses in place of lies
Laughter over my cries

I gotta go in a new direction
I’m tired of your imperfections

And I don’t want to hear you say

Baby
Don’t you ever leave me
I know that it aint easy
But we can take it in a new direction
Baby
I know you must be dreaming
Cause my feelings have never changed
You are the sum of my equation
Baby
Don’t go away this time
I promise I’ll make it right
I’m gonna go in a new direction
Baby
Please don’t ever leave me
You’re the only one who sees
The beauty in my imperfections
