Dan Diaz - I Love You (But I'm Leaving) lyrics

[Verse 1] Close your eyes and count to ten Take a minute, breathe it in Watch it mixing with the wind outside your window Like salt into the ocean Back to where I belong Pedal down, a brand new song Take one off to try one on 'cause there's no secret To this life [Chorus] I love you but I'm leaving I hope you figure out some day What it is you're needing But if you can't help yourself, I can't make myself stay [Verse 2] Every little chord and tone Ring them out stick by stone I know it used to be my home. It's far behind me And I'm not lookin' back No, not even a second glance Water over dirty hands And though it doesn't make much sense right now I'll let it just work out in the end [Chorus] I love you but I'm leaving I hope you figure some day What it is you're needing But if you can't help yourself, I can't make myself stay [Bridge] And though I don't owe an explanation You're kind of like sitting too close to a fire I know a few feet would make it better But this chair's so heavy, it's late, I'm getting tired But long gone are the days where I sit by and wait For you to just burn out or burn me up So this is goodbye [Outro] I love you but I'm leaving I hope you figure out some day What it is you're needing But if you can't help yourself, I can't make myself stay
