Meklit Hadero Leaving Soon
He strum the guitar light
The way he stroke my back
Cause he's shy sometimes
I ask him to dance
But oh he won't dance
No he don't know he's
Beautiful
He pull back the veil and
Show the color of his heart
It's blue, so blue
So blue
But yes, I know
You're leaving soon
Well baby no
Don't come so close
You're leaving
Leaving soon
Well baby no
Don't come so close
You're leaving
Leaving soon
He take me to the roof
And show me the moon
Near full tonight
And there we lay
With my guitar and play
Oh lovely
My dear, my dear
So far from here
You'll be, you'll be
Maybe you can stay with me?
Well baby no
Don't come so close
You're leaving
Leaving soon
Well baby no
Don't come so close
You're leaving
Leaving soon
Well your eyebrows, they arch softly
Like branches toward the water
And your fingertips
They remind me of the moon
Well time it passes quickly
Been years and years already
I am glad you're leaving
