Story Behind The Song

I'm a songwriter. I had this feeling someone I liked was leaving. I'm trained to capture the moment, the emotion and the undying hope and yearning.

Song Description

This song explores the emotions surrounding the feeling that a person you love may be leaving and reminisces about hopes and dreams and unrequited belief, unexpressed.

Lyrics

Had this feeling, you were leaving.
It came over me like an Autumn breeze
that stirs the soul's deep memories.

If you're leaving, don't just walk away,
'cause I have to know, for you turn to go,
if there might be another day to ....

... hold you, warm by my side.
Remember how it used to be,
when you turned to me,
I saw the magic in your eyes.

Had this feeling. You were leaving.

If you're leaving, should run after you.
You're the only one who can move my soul,
should I call you up and be meek or bold?

Lovely lady, if you yearn to go.
Wisemen often say, when love walks away,
it sometimes comes back strong someway I'll ...

... hold you, warm in my heart.
I know my love won't set me free,
'til you're here with me.
Is this the way love's meant to be?

I'll believe in you for eternity.
(instrumental)

If you're leaving, know that I'm the fool.
Should have kept my feelings to myself,
'cause when you're gone there's no one else.

If you're leaving.
I'll still be here for you.
If you're leaving.
If you're leaving.
