tillamook (leah's song)

you know it's hard to leave the arms of those you love
doubly so when you're young
triply so when the springitme come
ungodly many times so when your the one

and i wish i didn't havta leave o so soon
and i think that you know this to be true
but i'll sing it anyway
i'm gonna miss your soft touch and your warm embrace

it's gonna be hard to wait
'til i get to see you again
'til i hold you in my arms again

i flew to portland to be in the sun
yeah we drove to tillamook to see how the cheese makin's done
then down on the coast through a mountain we ran 
to the tidepools on the other side
and you asked me if i knew just how lucky we were
well here's my reply

you know it's hard to leave the arms of those you love
twice as hard when you're young
thrice as hard when the springitme come
ungodly many times hard when just falling in love

and i wish i didn't havta leave o so soon
and i think that you know this to be true
but i'll sing it anyway
i'm gonna miss your soft touch and your warm embrace
and i'm gonna miss your sweet smile and the love that we made
and when we sang o darling when we couldn't play the tape

mmm, guess it's gonna be hard
hard on my heart can hardly wait
never gonna let you go again
never gonna leave my arms again
