Knowing When to Leave
|
|
Go while the going is good
|
Knowing when to leave may be the smartest thing anyone can learn.
|
Go!
|
|
I'm afraid my heart
|
Isn't very smart.
|
|
Fly while your still have your wings
|
Knowing when to leave will never let you reach the point of no return.
|
Fly!
|
|
Foolish as it seems,
|
I still have my dreams!
|
|
So I keep hoping, day after day, as I wait for the man I meet
|
And night after night as I wish for a love that can be
|
Though I'm sure that no one can tell when their wishes and hopes, will lead
|
Somehow I feel there is happiness just waiting there for me.
|
|
When someone walks in your life, you'd just better be sure he's right.
|
`Cause if he's wrong there's are heartaches and tears you must pay.
|
Keep both of your eyes on the door -- Never let it get out of sight
|
Just be prepared when the time has come for you to run away
|
|
Sail when the wind starts to blow
|
But like a fool I don't know when . . . to . . .leave.
|
|
When to leave!
|
When to leave!
|
When to leave!
|
When . . . to . . . leave!
