Leaving Verse 1 In the quiet cool of a Japanese night With the company of coffee and my bedroom's dim light I've been trying to recall, with all of my might People who have left me some time in my life. Verse 2 My father left when I was so small That the meaning of death I knew nothing at all My mother left not long after that but, I knew about death then, I cried about that My combat friend, who I would protect in a fight When the fighting began he left me for the dark My wife who loved money and means Left me to raise 3 kids in their teens Chorus After half of my life and to my big surprise I went to your restaurant and looked into your eyes A more perfect face I never had met And my eyes followed you wherever you went I could have gone home and forgot what I saw But I didn't do that, I wanted much more Verse 3 For more than a year I thought of no one but you My feeling of love was so very new I showed you my heart, so much of love there I forgot about respect, but I didn't care But then I saw something, here, I don't want to say But I quickly brought respect back into play Verse 4 The secret, quiet calls, sent and received And only you know whose heart they relieved I fought very hard to keep respect for you then But my respect for you died, and that was the end But here in my heart, I will keep my love strong To let my love for you die would simply be wrong So I'll smile and I'll wave as I see you each day But here in my heart, I have love words to say Chorus After half of my life and to my big surprise I walked into your restaurant and looked into your eyes A more perfect face I never had met And my eyes followed you wherever you went I could have gone home and forgot what I saw But I didn't do that I wanted much more Verse 5 Now I am old and weak in the head And when people ask me just when my heart bled I will tell of my feelings and all about you That just once in my life what I felt was so new But like others who left and to die Just why you were with me, I'll never know why Verse6 But just like the others, you turned and you left I waved my goodbyes and silently wept You were the last, this won't happen again The next one to leave will be me, at the end.
