Why Are You Leaving Lyrics

Level 42 Why Are You Leaving

Tell me why are you leaving
When there's no place to go?
What's this secret you're keeping?
You don't want me to know

Only lies need defending
'Cos the truth stands by itself
It's time for honesty
I can see there's someone else

When the dawn breaks tomorrow
Will your whole life be changed?
Are you sure all this sorrow
Won't just flood back again?

Some strange dream you've been chasing
It's just another rainbow's end
You won't find it there, not anywhere
So why pretend?

Tell me why are you leaving
For the things that you know?
If it's dreams you believe in
Just how far can you go?

If you leave, what's the answer?
Perhaps some other sad affair
Won't you change your mind?
Take some time and I'll be there
I'll be there
