I've always said that someday I was gonna leave you   Some April when all the land is wet   Some spring, summer, fall, lord, or maybe winter   I'll leave someday but I'm not ready yet      I know I should've left the day I knew your love was dying   But I passed up every date that I ever set   But I know I'll leave when my heart tells me it's ready   But I'm still around 'cause I'm not ready yet      You know I must've left you a hundred times, but you don't know that   'Cause I was afraid I'd be ashamed that you'd laugh   When you found out just how far I'd get   But you didn't, and you don't, I know you ain't gonna ever   And someday I'll go, but I'm not ready yet      I know I should've left the day I knew your love was dying   But I passed up every date, so boy I ever set   But I know I'll leave when my heart tells me, "George, we're ready"   I'm still around, 'cause I'm not ready yet   I'm still around, 'cause I'm not ready yet
