Lyrics
EVEN AS YOU'RE LEAVIN'
© 2009 Dennis Long
There's lot's of stuff with both our names
No one wants the wedding photographs
We watched it all go up in flames
And shared a quart of cheap red wine
We signed a pile of papers, and agreed to disagree...
Even as you're leaving, you're still beautiful to me
We had a good thing going on
Then our laughter turned to shouting
For every right there's two things wrong
Life's too short to live this way
But you taught me things I won't forget, and things I didn't need...
Even as you're leaving, you're still beautiful to me
I know in my heart that it's time to let this be over
Still, part me wants nothing more than to ask you to stay
But I know you're no longer mine
This will never be our home again
So as I hold you one last time
I try to breathe this moment in
You say goodbye and kiss me, and I try but I can't speak...
Even as you're leaving, you're still beautiful to me
As you drive away, I stand here on the lonely side of free...
Even as you're leaving, you're still beautiful to me
Even as you're leaving, you're still beautiful...
...You're still beautiful to me
...You're still beautiful to me
