Challenge 10

Here's Challenge 10! This will be What If I Leave? by Rachael Yamagata.


Oh why don't you call
when you say you will, my dear?
Is it because I don't belong to you
Anymore?

And why don't you come
when you say you will, my dear?
Do you really think it would work out wrong

Oh, and you've been lost
And I've been safe
Is that what comes from giving away
Maybe in time you will
Come back along to greet me

What if I leave? What if I leave?
What if I leave? What if I leave?

Why don't you call?
Don't you miss me at all?
Left a long long time ago
To where the weather was better
For his kind

And why won't you please
The girl who loves your face?
I may be a fool, oh no
But I never understood these rules

Oh, and every street calls your name
A whispering ghost of neighborhood flame
Maybe in time you will
Wake up to find you're free

What if I leave? What if I leave?
What if I leave? What if I leave?

So I grow up lonely for another
With the windy city left behind to my lover
Will you ever know the way I cry?
You were gone that day,
So you may have missed my goodbye

Oh, and sometimes in my dreams I hear you say
"If you really cared, you won't go away"

What if I leave? What if I leave?
What if I leave? What if I leave?

What if I leave? What if I leave?
What if I leave? What if I leave?
