I have wept until i've slept into the lap of the lady that I love

Though she begged and she cajoled I couldn't tell her what I was thinking of

I didn't choose no I was chosen by a life that must be lived in passing through
Bm D
And though she changed so much for me, changing this is the one thing I cannot do

Darling, I'm leaving,
D A Bm
Distance keeps calling me on,
Em A
Darling, come morning,
D
I'll be gone

She is beauty she is graceful in her poise and she is gentle in her care
Bm D
she is the calm within the center of my storm she is her fingers through my hair
Bm D
she has my heart though it is breaking cause it knows that deep inside she still believes

That there will ever come a morning when i'm staying, and not gathering to leave

Baby let's get out of the city, we need to breathe some cleaner air,

That creeping feeling's starting like I miss you, but with both of us still here

We have all this independance, but it still feels like we never had a choice
