Leaving Song

from Curtains by Paris Street

/

lyrics

this is not the way we said that it would be
there's too big a risk, too much uncertainty
it can only cause concerns that we don't need
and i must
i must leave

these romantic notions that we tend to hold
must be set aside before we let them grow
it's unfortunate but that is life, you know
and i must go
i must go

sometimes there are words we just cannot say
when we know our time grows shorter every day
even when the feeling's strong we back away
cos i can't stay
i can't stay

this is not the way we said that it would be
it's a choice we have to make reluctantly
all our friends say we seem perfect, you and me
but i must leave
i must leave
