I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love Lyrics

Rita Coolidge I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love

I'd rather leave while i'm in love
While I still believe the meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
That you and I are never gonna end

Refrain:
Too many times I've seen
The rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken
Usually it's mine
I don't want to take the chance
Of being hurt again
You and I can't say goodbye

Chorus:
So if you wake and find me gone
Oh baby carry on
You see I need my fantasy
I still believe
It's best to leave while I'm in love

(Repeat Refrain & Chorus)

I still believe
It's best to leave while I'm in love
