Wikipedia article"'Even Though I'm Leaving'" is a song recorded by American country music singer Luke Combs. It was released in September 2019 as the second single to his second studio album, 'What You See Is What You Get'. Content"Even Though I'm Leaving" is described as a "soft, mandolin-infused country song" and "stone-cold tear-jerker" by the blog Taste of Country. Co-written by Combs along with Wyatt Durrette and Ray Fulcher, the song features a dramatic interaction between a father and son. In three different scenarios, the son, who is the narrator, pleads his father not to leave him. In the first verse, the narrator is a child who is afraid of monsters under his bed, while the second features the son as a young adult going off to serve in the military, and the final verse features the son becoming emotional over his father's death. The song previously appeared on Combs's 2019 EP 'The Prequel'.
