Let Me Leave by Marc Broussard Lyrics
"How many times have I come to you?
How many times have you taken me in?
How have you never quite realized
That this will be nothing more than what it's been?
Why is that I return to the scene of a crime
Though there's nothing I need?
Between the moments that linger before us
Haven't you wondered why I always leave?
Chorus
Let me, be who I am...
Let me, leave while I can...
You know love don't find this sort of man
So just let me leave while I can...
How many times have I come to you
Bleeding and broken and under attack?
How can you look in my eyes and my heart
And not see that there's something I lack?
Why is it that I'm as bad as I am
But I know that you'll never believe?
Why do you still love me
When all I have done is to lie and deceive?
Chorus
Can't give you what you need
And I'm so tired that I can't breathe...
And I don't know if you can see
But my ship is going down...
And I tried my best to be a man
So I'll set you free while I still can
Cause I can't seem to change who I am...
Chorus
Yeah just
Let me leave while I can...
Let me leave, let me leave..."
How many times have you taken me in?
How have you never quite realized
That this will be nothing more than what it's been?
Why is that I return to the scene of a crime
Though there's nothing I need?
Between the moments that linger before us
Haven't you wondered why I always leave?
Chorus
Let me, be who I am...
Let me, leave while I can...
You know love don't find this sort of man
So just let me leave while I can...
How many times have I come to you
Bleeding and broken and under attack?
How can you look in my eyes and my heart
And not see that there's something I lack?
Why is it that I'm as bad as I am
But I know that you'll never believe?
Why do you still love me
When all I have done is to lie and deceive?
Chorus
Can't give you what you need
And I'm so tired that I can't breathe...
And I don't know if you can see
But my ship is going down...
And I tried my best to be a man
So I'll set you free while I still can
Cause I can't seem to change who I am...
Chorus
Yeah just
Let me leave while I can...
Let me leave, let me leave..."
