I'd rather leave while I'm in love
|
While I still believe the meaning of the word
|
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
|
That you and I were never meant to end
|
|
Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
|
Somebody's heart gets broken
|
And usually it's mine
|
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
|
And you and I can't say goodbye
|
|
So, if you wake and find me gone
|
Oh, babe, just carry on
|
You see, I need my fantasy
|
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love, ooh
|
|
Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
|
Somebody's heart gets broken, yeah
|
And usually it's mine
|
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
|
And you and I, we can't say goodbye
|
|
So, if you wake and find me gone
|
Hey, babe, just carry on
|
You see, I need my fantasy
|
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love, oh, oh
|
I'd rather leave while I'm in love
|
