Love, you were kind and much older   Foolish but wiser than me   Am I becoming an anchor?   Holding you back from the sea      Restlessly you stand there, crying silently   It must be so hard being easy on me      Compassionate man, so gentle, trying hard   To shelter me, compassionate man, so kind   But the bottom line will be what it will be   You're leaving me, leaving me      Love, my whole life was a desert   Then gently your love fell like rain   We lived for awhile in a garden   But now, I'm a desert again      Come right out and say it, tell me honestly   It must be so hard being easy on me      Compassionate man, so gentle, trying hard   To shelter me, compassionate man, so kind   But the bottom line will be what it will be   You're leaving me, leaving me, you're leaving me   You're leaving me, you're leaving me
