should i leave
Brent Morgan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I caught you from a distance
A blur but I could read those eyes
And no one ever told me your name

Yeah, maybe I had dreamt this
Nobody′s ever worth my time
But maybe it was time for a change
And I don't wanna be
Always stuck in between
I′m in love, I'm in lust
I'm obsessed with a dream

Am I taking you home
Are you taking me home
Should I leave?

Should I leave before the morning
Stay until the dawn
Listen to another couple breakup songs
Leave without a warning, stay another episode?

Should I leave before the first
Or stay for last call
Drowning in my doubt without the alcohol?

Am I taking you home?
Are you taking me home?
Should I leave you alone?
Should I just leave?

I feel you in my headspace
I′ll never get you out of my mind
I′m wrestling if I want it to change

Am I in it just to save face?
Is it love or just a lovely time?
Is it easier to throw it away?

And I don't wanna be
Always stuck in between
I′m in love, I'm in lust
I′m obsessed with a dream

Am I taking you home
Are you taking me home
Should I leave?

Should I leave before the morning
Stay until the dawn
Listen to another couple breakup songs
Leave without a warning, stay another episode?

Should I leave before the first
Or stay for last call
Drowning in my doubt without the alcohol?

Am I taking you home?
Are you taking me home?
Should I leave you alone?
Should I just leave?

Am I taking you home?
Are you taking me home?




Should I leave you alone?
Should I just leave?

Overall Meaning

The song "Should I Leave" by Brent Morgan is about the uncertainty that comes with romantic relationships. The singer sees someone they're interested in from a distance and is unsure if they should pursue them or not. They're caught between the feelings of love, lust, and obsession, and they don't know if they should just leave before things get too difficult or stay and try to make it work. The repeated refrain of "Should I leave?" emphasizes this theme of indecisiveness and the struggle to make a choice.


The lyrics also touch on the fear of rejection and the desire to save face. The singer wonders if they're only interested in the person to avoid feeling left out or if they're genuinely in love. They're wrestling with their feelings and trying to determine if it's worth taking a risk or if it's easier to give up and walk away.


Overall, "Should I Leave" captures the complexities of romantic relationships and the difficult decisions that come with them. It's a relatable and introspective song that speaks to the fears and uncertainties of falling in love.


Line by Line Meaning

I caught you from a distance
I observed you from afar


A blur but I could read those eyes
Despite being far away, I could decipher your emotions from your eyes


And no one ever told me your name
I didn't know your name


Yeah, maybe I had dreamt this
I thought this wasn't real


Nobody?s ever worth my time
In the past, no one has been important enough to invest my time in


But maybe it was time for a change
Perhaps it was time to start feeling differently


And I don't wanna be
I don't want to remain


Always stuck in between
In a constant state of ambivalence


I?m in love, I'm in lust
I have strong feelings for you


I'm obsessed with a dream
You're my fantasy


Am I taking you home
Will we leave this place together?


Are you taking me home
Will you be the one who takes me home?
