Leave Me Slowly

[Verse 1]

Two heartbeats, never in time

Two lovers over enemy lines

I know we're broken but don't wanna believe it

[Verse 2]

You're so close to saying the words

Way past the point of any return

It's such a shame and I don't wanna believe it

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, if I could go back to that evening we met

Trembling hands as I'd ask for your number again

You saw me different then

Oh, when I held your heart in my hand

[Chorus]

So, if you're gonna leave me

Just leave me slowly

Let's make it last

Just one more dance

Before the moment's passed

I'd rather that you lay here

Than leave me lonely

So, stay for a while

Just one more mile

Before we say goodbye

[Verse 3]

Two shadows of the people we were

So close to finding Heaven on Earth

It's such a shame and I don't wanna believe it

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, if I could go back to that evening we met

Trembling hands as I'd ask for your number again

You saw me different then

Oh, when I held your heart in my hand

[Chorus]

So, if you're gonna leave me

Just leave me slowly

Let's make it last

Just one more dance

Before the moment's passed

I'd rather that you lay here

Than leave me lonely

Stay for a while

Just one more mile

Before we say goodbye

[Instrumental Break: Electric Guitar & Drums]

(Yeah)

(Ah-ah, ah-ah)

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I'd kill to go back to that evening we met

Trembling hands as I'd ask for your number again

You saw me different then

Oh, when I held your heart in my hand

[Bridge]

So, if you're gonna leave me

Just leave me slowly

[Chorus]

(If you're gonna leave) So, baby, if you leave me

(Leave me slowly) Just leave me slowly

Let's make it last

Just one more dance

Before the moment's passed

(I'd rather that you lay here) I'd rather that you lay here

(Than leave me lonely) Than leave me lonely

Stay for a while

Just one more mile

Before we say goodbye

[Outro]

(If you're gonna leave, leave me slowly)

Stay for a while

Just one more mile

Before we say goodbye
