Verse 1
On hot and breathless summer nights,
when sleep escapes your tired eyes,
you sit outside, beer in your hand,
your thoughts run free, no longer planned.

You think about the life you’ve known,
the path you walked, the seeds you’ve sown,
you feel your heartbeat, strong and wild,
because inside, love hasn’t died.

Chorus
You have to leave your parents’ home,
start a new life, stop living closed,
steal the heart of the one you love,
life is short, don’t give it up.
You have to leave your parents’ home,
start a new life, be brave, be bold,
steal the heart of the one you love,
life is short, you can be happy, don’t you know.

Verse 2
You had it all, what you once dreamed,
yet something pushed you, unseen, unseen,
your soul still knows something’s wrong,
inside the pain keeps humming on.

There was a girl you truly loved,
but her family stood opposed,
even grown, you’re still afraid,
break those chains, don’t carry their blame.

Chorus
You have to leave your parents’ home,
start a new life, stop living closed,
steal the heart of the one you love,
life is short, don’t give it up.
You have to leave your parents’ home,
start a new life, be brave, be bold,
steal the heart of the one you love,
life is short, you can be happy, don’t you know.

Bridge
When you feel your life has turned around,
be careful if the world feels twisted now,
sometimes fate plays games with us all,
sometimes we burn, sometimes we fall.

Chorus
You have to leave your parents’ home,
start a new life, stop living closed,
steal the heart of the one you love,
life is short, don’t give it up.
You have to leave your parents’ home,
start a new life, be brave, be bold,
steal the heart of the one you love,
life is short, you can be happy, don’t you know.

Outro
Don’t be afraid to leave and start again,
your parents pull you down, now save yourself, my friend,
give your heart to the one you truly love,
please believe me now – you can be happy, love.
