"Enough To Leave" lyrics

"Enough To Leave"

Enough to kill you
Enough to put you down
Seems like everywhere you turn
Is like a hard wind comin' down
Enough to leave me
Enough to leave me here
And though the room is empty now
I can almost feel you here

What am I supposed to do with my afternoons?
Know I won't hear your call, know I won't see you soon
What can you say to me to ease my heart and pain?
Could you send a ray of light to come down and dry the rain again?

I'd give you diamonds
I'd give you rings and pearls
If you could stay a while with me
And just hold on to this world
Feelin' sorry
For things I haven't said
And there's a lot I'd like to say
Before your final page is read

What am I supposed to do with my afternoons?
Know I won't hear your call, know I won't see you soon
What can you say to me to ease my heart and pain?
Could you send a ray of light to come down and dry the rain again?

Its finally over
It's finally over now
And you can rest assured, my friend
'Cause you'll be restin' anyhow
I hate to leave you
Hate to say goodbye
I surely hear your voice come through
In the early morning skies

What am I supposed to do in my afternoons?
Know I won't hear your call, know I won't see you soon
What can you say to me to ease my [heart and/hardened?] pain?
Could you send a ray of light to come down and dry the rain again?

Mercy
