Lyrics:

Before I leave you this time
Before I leave you behind
I'll tell you I miss you so
Maybe the first day I'm away...
I'll tell you I might be back this way
But please don't you wait...

Before I leave you tonight
Before I turn off your light
I'll tell you there'll be another
Maybe not the same, but she'll do...
I'll tell you there's not another
That likes me so that you will be blue...

(Instrumental Bridge)

Now, before I leave you this time
Before I leave you behind
I'll tell you I miss you so
Maybe the first day I'm away...
I'll tell you I might be back this way
But please don't you wait...

Before I leave you tonight
(Before I leave you tonight)
Before I turn off your light
(Before I turn off your light)
Before I leave you this time
(Before I leave you this time)
