THIS LEAVING IS MINE (lyrics)
Longing for freedom
To ride on the wind
Set my face forward
Not come back here again
Why can’t I leave here
I really must go
To stay here won’t do me
It’s killing me slow
To feel how the wind plays
With strands of my hair
And reach in my memory
For someone who cared
I just want to go now
Won’t you let me pass by
I’ve done all my loving
There’s no reason to cry
I’ve had all I can handle
Had more than my share
No worries do I need
No more burdens to bear
Just let me pass by you
Don’t hold me here now
There's time for my leaving
And that time is now
Just play the song often
And if you can hear
At the end there’s a message
That began with a tear
I cried when you left me
Never meaning to show
That it mattered to me none
To know that you’d go
Just let me go this time
Let me be the one
To end this time we had
Say – yeah it’s been fun
I left you the some money
To carry you through
I know you’ll find someone
Like you always do
I’m trying to tell you
The leaving is mine
I’ve loved, but it left me
And this is my time
So goodbye now and thanks
For the memories and smiles
I need to go quickly
Have so many miles
To cover before dark
Before more teardrops fall
Yes I know that it’s over
I won’t wait for your call
No, I don’t hate you
I feel nothing at all
It’s just over, it’s over
Nothing left to recall
