lyrics

Son, pack your bags
We’re leaving our home yet again
Moving’s part of the plan
You’ll make friends when we land,

I promise you
I’m sorry lad
We’re letting the dogs roam the land
They won’t fit in the car
You’re my star and they’ll run so far away

Think of it as a new start my boy
If you’re good we will buy you a toy
Think of it as a new way to grow
Learning lessons,
you reap and you sow

Girl, help me out
I’m trying my best not to shout
Your son’s in the other room
And he needs your kindness
and loving words

Babe, pack your things
Don’t look at me angry it stings
Letting go is not easy
Don’t forget that I love you
With all my heart

Think of it as a new start my love
It's you that I carry in my head above
Think of it as a new way to grow
Learning lessons,
you reap and you sow

You think that I wanted to stay
But I’m hurting inside everyday
Just look in your children’s eyes

Hey, I’m your friend
Though you hate me right now, it will end
You’ll find that we tried our best
To love you and show you
How to change

There is a place
In the hardest of moments you face
Its quiet when we are here
Altogether, in prayer
We hold our hands
