Sitting all alone tonight, IĄŻm in a quiet mood
|
Drawing all these pictures in my mind--they wonĄŻt come true
|
An answer to this mystery or even just a clue
|
Tell me what to do. What am I to do?
|
If you leave, can you leave it in my hands?
|
If you go away, to find yourself a better day
|
I know its hard to say goodbye, its not the way we planned.
|
And if you leave, my heart is in your hands.
|
Looking back on yesterday, I swear it was a dream
|
There was nothing that could come between us, so it seemed.
|
But you can go no further now, youĄŻre up against the wall.
|
See, the hole weĄŻre standing in started off so small.
|
If you leave, can you leave it in my hands?
|
If you go away, to find yourself a better day
|
I know its hard to say goodbye, its not the way we planned.
|
And if you leave, my heart is in your hands.
|
One of these days IĄŻll wake up to the sounds of a parade
|
And thereĄŻll be joy and laughter every day.
|
But how am I supposed to take up all the years that must go on?
|
And how can I be happy with the rest of my life if the rest of my life is gone?
|
If you leave, can you leave it in my hands?
|
If you go away, you know IĄŻll never be the same.
|
Its almost time to say goodbye, so I hope you understand
|
That if you leave
|

If You Leave
