Farewell Song Lyrics by Rachel Rose Mitchell

Heart of Mine

2016

I don't want to leave you
But the wind is howling loud
And flowers die off in this kind of cold
I don't want to leave you
But what I want hardly matters now
I'd ask one favour of you
Please grow old
We swore that we would stand alone together
And I hate to make you a liar
But I saw this coming all along
I fear there's nowhere we can go from here
Hard to believe that sometimes
What feels right is wrong
You say it's tearing you to bits
But you don't know the half of it
I'm crumbling like paper in the rain
I don't want to leave you
But the wind is howling loud
And flowers die off in this kind of cold
I don't want to leave you
But what I want hardly matters now
I'd ask one favour of you
Please grow old
It's a welcome change for once to have
Someone to rely on
At least until it all comes tumbling down
You don't understand all the fuss
But there's bigger things than both of us
If all this leaves you breathless
Then I'd rather you keep breathing
You say it's tearing you in two
But you should know this tears me too
I'm burning like dry fields set alight
Your reckless days and sleepless nights
I watched them as your satellite
We danced around each other like
Nothing could come between
The only part I've come to hate
It came with an expiry date
The things we want forever
Couldn't last the century
I don't want to leave you
Why can't I just stay in your arms?
Just a moment longer
What's the harm?
I don't want to leave you
But what I want hardly matters now
I'd ask one favour of you
So if it's at all in your power
Please grow old
Please grow old
I don't want to leave you
But what I want hardly matters now
(Please grow old)
I'd ask one favour of you
