Story Behind The Song
So I get this guitar in high school and I know maybe three cords. With plans to be the next Kristofferson, this is the first song I ever wrote.
Sadly after many years, I know about four chords and though I've a few more songs, Kristofferson can rest easy that at least this guys not on his tail.

Lyrics
Leaving
I know it's time
You should be leaving
Things seem to be so far from right
But won't you stay
Just 'till the morning
And let me love you through the night
We made a try
That's all that matters
I never planned for it to end
Just remember as you are leaving
My broken heart will never mend
Just one more time
Please let me hold you
Let me lead you to our bed
Let me show you how much I love you
Leave all the bitter things unsaid
In my mind I'll always keep you
Though I know you're roaming free
You say it's best , what we are doing
It's best for you, but not for me
