Leavin? Time

Verse 1
I remember the moment when you left my life
I drifted for days on a windless tide
Searchin? around for someone I could blame
Then your voice of reason came
You say, quiet your aching mind
You say, everything will be fine
You say, the wounds will all heal in time
Chorus
What am I supposed to do
You?ve chosen a leavin? time much too soon
I?m not ready to let you go
But I know
Some things you just can?t change
And I?m sure, I?m sure
I?ll see your face again
Verse 2
So unprepared for the road ahead
I used to be strong but I?m weak instead
My usual bravery?s a cryin? shame
Then your voice of reason came
You say, pick yourself up again
You say, show them you are someone
You say, soon there will be no pain
Break
After all my trust in you
How could you leave me half way through
I think my heart might break in two
