Lyrics
TIME TO LEAVE
Your aggravations keep on running at my mind
I can't keep this pace I'm falling well behind
All the while I know that you're just sitting there
Smiling as you watch me drown in deep despair
You're the cause of this, oh girl, you're trouble, trouble truly
Your ways of getting things are just a bit unruly
Well, you know what I think that I'll just leave you now
Your painful ways to me I just cannot allow
I give you all of my love, girl
But it's just not enough for you, oh
So it's time for me to leave you
Forget all of the bad things that you do
That you do, oh, with your life
It's time for me to go away
Baby say goodbye
You're a painful measure, you're a rain full measure of a man's delight
With your body beautiful you're captured in my sight
Your hair, so long, so lovely, as it shines tonight
Pretty face with evil eyes moves me to fright
Oh, your skin so soft, so smooth I must be near you
To hold you close to me I know that I'm a fool
Cause you will only bring my heart to grief in time
Inside you're cruel and cold, oh girl, you'll never be mine
I've given all of my love, girl
But it's just not enough for you, oh
So it's time for me to leave you
Forget all of the bad things that you do
That you do, oh, with your life
It's time for me to go away
Baby say goodbye
I got to go away you see girl
I'll give you all of my love, girl
But it's just not enough for you
So it's time for me to leave you (leave you, yeah)
Forget all of the bad things that you do (bad things that you do)
Time to leave you now, thank God we're through
We're through, oh, with your lies
Oh, it's time for me to go away
Baby, say goodbye
I got to go away you see girl
Say... say... Baby, say goodbye
