The days they go on
And the roads are so long
You're a slave to your past

Just a slave to your past

Your love life is gone

And the woman you so loved
Is a slave to your past
She's just a slave to your past


And the roads that you saw
Won't take you back home

And they won't take you to your past
No, not to your past


Well you looked her in the eyes
And you told her it's alright
And that you'd never let her go

But you let her go

Well she ran far away

Left you confused and dazed
So why'd you let her go?
And now your all alone


Well now there's tears in your eyes
You had to leave that life behind

And now it's in your past
So just leave it in the past


So you're left here all alone
And you're still without a home
Cause you're a slave to your past

You should have left it in your past
