I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love

I'd rather leave while I'm in love
While I still believe the meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
That you and I were never meant to end

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken and usually it's mine
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I can't say goodbye

So if you wake and find me gone
Oh babe, just carry on
You see, I need my fantasy
I still believe, it's best to leave while I'm in love, ooh

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken, yeah, and usually it's mine
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I, we can't say goodbye

So if you wake and find me gone
Hey babe, just carry on
You see, I need my fantasy
I still believe, it's best to leave while I'm in love
Oh, oh, I'd rather leave while I'm in love
