Leavin’ Lyrics by Soul for Real

For Life...

1996

It brings me to tears
'Cause things didn't go the way we planned
Even though we said forever
But forever wasn't on our side
So now I have to say goodbye
And it hurts inside
Even though I know you're probably the best thing for me
Still I must go and face this road of Lonely
So, as I wipe this tears from my eyes
I want you to know I love you
So don't take it personal
I've got to be leavin'
Yes, I'm on my way
I've gotta go now
But I wish I could stay
And I wanna thank you for the times that you've been giving me
You see Ive got a long way to go
And it such a lonely road
If I make it through these days
Still be afraid of tomorrow
I'm not sure where I go
But you'll be on my mind, baby
All the time
Even though I know you're probably the best thing for me
Still I must go and face this road of Lonely
As I wipe this tears from my eyes
I want you to know I love you
So don't take it personal
I've gotta be leavin'
Yes I'm on my way
I've gotta go now but I wish I could stay
And I wanna thank you for the times that you've been giving me
You see Ive got a long way to go
And it such a lonely road
Sweetie, I have to go
And I know this isn't the way we planned things
But things aren't always the way you plan
You know, but I'm looking forward to coming back to you
And when I do, things are going to be just the way it used to be
I've gotta be leavin'
Yes I'm on my way
I've gotta go now but I wish I could stay
And I wanna thank you for the times that you've been giving me
You see Ive got a long way to go
And it such a lonely road
And it such a lonely road
And it such a lonely road
