Lyrics
I Can tell I'll Have to go
With each passing day, You're more set in your ways
I can always find you, No need to remind you of the
Plans that we make, It's a piece of cake
Isn't that what they say, Just before the whole thing blows
It is under your nose
I can tell I'll Have to go
Romance and tragedy, Drama and fantasy
are the things that I need
My right to flee is guaranteed
You'll find me in pursuit of
Forbidden Fruit, Stolen kisses twice as sweet as
Strawberries and cream, Or so they may seem
I can tell I'll Have to go
Here with me, there's no inbetween
Someone's got to be mean
And I can tell it's gonna be me
I can't put you through the rages I feel
Imagined or real. You're so calm and so serene
As my demons wage a tug of war
I can tell I'll Have to go
