"Take My Leaving As I Love You" lyrics - WESTSIDE COWBOY

If you can only nod
Sat cross-legged on the bed
Don't fight this thing you try to stop
And just quit while you're ahead

As awful as it feels
Nothing good comes out of comfort
We've known each other so well so long
I can't imagine you don't see that

It's as if I didn't know
The delicate wires we balance on
I make you squeamish, and it shows
And I can't do that for too long

Throw your coins into a well
And pretty soon the water tastes like copper
And if wishing made some sense
This conversation wouldn't matter

[Outro:]
Now I'll leave you alone
Now I'm sure that it is best
Please take my leaving as "I love you"
As my last leaving promise
