Mary Chapin Carpenter - This Is Me Leaving You lyrics

This is your voice of reason

This is your voice of calm

This is your heart that's speaking

Saying the time has come

Here is your pride and grace now

Here is your strengh and soul

Everything's at the ready, you're finally good to go

Now tell him there's one last thing that you forgot to do

This is me leaving you, this is me leaving you

He told you to try believing (don't you worry)

He asked you to keep the faith (or keep guessing)

He took all that you were giving (don't be sorry)

As if it all were his to take (you're progressing)

Now it's the truth that won't let go (don't you doubt it)

Now it's the facts that you can't shake (and don't fear it)

Now it's just time to let him know (each new step is)

You made a big mistake (one more near it)

Maybe these final words will offer up a clue

This is me leaving you, this is me leaving you

This is me baby, breaking us in two

This is me leaving you

I'm your better half

Baby that's a laugh

This is your voice of reason

This is your voice of calm

This is your heart that's speaking

Don't look back, just keep on going

This is me leaving you, this is me leaving you

This is me leaving you, this is me leaving you
