Leaving You

You loved me, and you made me what I am today

You loved me, and you gave in every single way

You loved me, and you gave it all so tenderly

You loved me, and I'm telling you now on bended knee

I'm a leavin' you, baby

Mmm yeah

I'm a leavin' you, baby

I was dirty, and you took me home and washed my face

I was nowhere, and you gave me a home and a restin' place

I was nothing, and you gave me something to live for

I was nowhere

I wanna tell you now like never before

I'm a leavin' you, baby

I'm a leavin' you, baby

Oh yeah

I was dirty, and you took me home and washed my face

I was nowhere, and you gave me a home and a restin' place

I was nothing, nothing, and you gave me something to live for

I was nowhere

And I'm feelin' it now like never before

Mama, I'm a leavin' you, baby

Mmm

I'm a leavin' you, baby

Mmm

I'm a leavin' you, baby

Oh yeah

I'm a leavin' you, baby, leavin' you, baby

Leavin' you, baby, leavin' you, baby

Time and time await

Baby

I'm a leavin you, before it's too late

I'm a leavin' you, baby

Hey Hey

I'm a leavin' you, baby

I can't stop the tears that you cry

I can't stop the tears that you cry

But I got to say good bye

Oh baby

I'm a-leavin' you, ma, ma, ma, ma

Oh, oh, leavin' you, baby

Mmm
