What If I Leave
Oh why don't you callWhen you say you will my dearIs it because I don't belong to youAnymore
And why don't you comeWhen you say you will my dearDo you really think it will work out wrong
Oh and you've been lostAnd I've been savedIs that what comes from giving away
Maybe in time you will come back alongTo greet me
What if I leave?What if I leave?What if I leave?What if I leave?
Why don't you call?Don't you miss me at all?Left a long long time agoTo where the weather was betterFor his kind
Why won't you play?You've gone and left your faceI may be a fool all alongBut I never understood these rules
Oh and every street calls your nameA whispering ghost of neighborhood flameMaybe in time you will wake up to find you're free
What if I leave?What if I leave?What if I leave?What if I leave?
So I grow up longing for anotherWith the windy city left behind to my loverWill you ever know the way I cryYou were gone that day, so you may have missedMy goodbye
Oh, and sometimes in my dreams I hear you say"If you really care you won't go away"
What if I leave?What if I leave?What if I leave?What if I leave?
What if I leave?What if I leave?What if I leave?What if I leave?
