Time’s Always Leaving

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Time's always leaving, heading out my door Saying goodbye, pacing my floor I can't seem to tell her, but I wish she would stay Time's always leaving, let her go on her way Time's always leaving, never takes off her coat Packing her bags, never leaving a note Seems I'm always believing she'll stay for the night Time's always leaving [Chorus] Before I can tell her to stay, stay I'm not through with her yet I'm afraid of the morning, morning And I dread the sunset [Verse 2] Time's always leaving, sneaking peeks at her watch Always whispering sweet little lies 'bout her thoughts Always saying everything's gonna be alright But time and time again, I give up the fight [Chorus] And tell her to stay, stay I'm not through with her yet I'm afraid of the morning, morning And I dread the sunset Oh, time won't you stay? You're all I've got left I'm a man on my knees Begging you please If you just have to leave Oh, take with you my regrets [Bridge] I slip away, put the blame on her I slip away, put the weight on her I slip away, slip away with her now Oh, I slip away, put the blame on her I slip away, put the weight on her I slip away, slip away with her now [Chorus] I'll tell her to stay, stay I'm not through with her yet I'm afraid of the morning, morning And I dread the sunset Oh, time won't you stay? You're all I've got left I'm a man on my knees Begging you please If you just have to leave Oh, take with you my regrets [Outro] I slip away, put the blame on her (I'll slip away with her now) I slip away, put the weight on her (I'll slip away with her now) I slip away (I'll slip away with her now) I slip away, put the blame on her (I'll slip away with her now) I slip away, put the weight on her (I'll slip away with her now) I slip away (oh)
