When You Leave

Theres a storm blowing in across the fields
Rattling these old windows and old doors
The air feels heavy coming through the screens
The way it always does before it pours
The rain is coming down tapping out a lullaby
In some sad familiar rhythm on the roof
I can tell youre leaving me long before youve gone
The distance in your eyes provides the proof
So baby when you leave please dont let me know
Just slip into your clothes there on the floor
Dont wake me up for another long goodbye
Just turn out the hallway light and lock the door
Oh baby when you leave just let me lying here
And maybe if I try hard to believe
That if I dont see you go then you wont be really gone
And I wont really miss you...
When you leave
Streaks of brilliant gold across a crooked sky
Illuminating pictures on the wall
All our photographs reduced to souvenirs
Whose stories now dont matter much at all
The thunders drumming out the beating of a restless heart
Shades of night are shifting with the dawn
And as storm clouds disappear beyond the distant hills
I know the sun is coming soon and youll be gone.
So baby when you leave please let me know
Just slip into your clothes there on the floor
Dont wake me up for another long goodbye
Just turn out the hallway light and lock the door
Oh baby when you leave just let me lying here
And maybe if I try hard to believe
That if I dont see you go then you wont be really gone
And I wont really miss you...
When you leave
{Bridge}
When you leave dont turn around
Just let the final curtain fade to black
And youll still believe that Ill be waiting here
And Ill still believe that youre coming back.
Repeat Chorus and Fade

| A good piece to put to song. A song we've all sang in our hearts when we know our love has changed and wishes to leave. The loves who we haven't accepted have already left us mentally, just waiting for that physical body to follow.Easier not to have to see them go. |
