Leaving Me Now (M King, P Gould, W Badarou)
It seems true love is so rare
Seems all I've known is deceit
Your laughter fills the air
Once more I'm senseing defeat

And I suppose you're leaving me now
I was so sure, now I'm so full of doubt
And I suppose you'll be leaving this place
Just like the smile you wiped from my face
This time...

I always gave my best
Your memory serves you so badly
Some people kill for less
Yet I'd still die for you gladly, oh so gladly

But I suppose it's my turn now
To play a scene that's familiar somehow
I turn the page, and you walk away
Not even love could bring you to stay
This time...

Walk away, you don't need me
Once more I'm learning in the depths of my despair
Your lies confirming, true love is so rare

And I suppose it's my turn now
There's no more love, only feelings of doubt
Gone with the hope your words have erased
Gone with the smile you wiped from my face

Love is a ship we all hope to steer
Through troubled times 'cross an ocean of tears
A midnight sea that swells in your eyes
Takes just one look to know I'm still
Mesmerised

But I suppose you're leaving me now
I was so sure, now I'm so full of doubt
I turn the page, and you walk away
Not even love could bring you to stay
This time...

Leaving me now
Leaving this place
I watch you walk away with an easy grace
