Story Behind The Song
The situation is as old as time...young lovely girl, mature interesting guy they have what they both want and go for it.
After a while she wants company with someone her age and has an affair but does not want to break up so she cries and pleads and he weighs his options on what she brings into his life....
Song Description
He is a mature man and she is a young, beautiful, she-devil and heart-breaker...it was inevitable that she would get with someone closer to her age group and when she did he knew it and she tried to brush the betrayal aside.
The song is a weighing of what he would lose when she leaves and if she leaves....during the course of this introspection he realizes it's them together that are guilty of mutual deception.

Lyrics
If you leave
Feel your tears barely touching my face
Won't erase how you betrayed
Every time I think of you, I'm reminded of what I'd lose
If you leave me know, I'd be lost without
You've given me a summer's warmth
Rainbow gardens without thorns
Now your winter chill sets in, lose my way on how to begin
If you leave me now, everything is gone, if you leave me now I'd be lost
People said I'm crazy cause my heart was always racing when it came to us
Gambling my emotions for your love and hate explosion, have we ruined it all?
I'm losing this battle, my life's torn in shambles
Why can't we ever say goodbye?
You and I accused with words, most of which were all absurd
Still that need for you returns, just to have you once again
If you leave me now, everything is gone
If you leave me now, I'd be lost without you
You
