Peter Allen - I'd Rather Leave While I'm In Love Lyrics

Peter Allen Lyrics

"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 were never gonna end

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
And somebody's heart gets broken, usually it's mine
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I can't say goodbye

So, if you wake and find me gone
Just carry on, you see, I need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
Somebody's heart gets broken, usually it's mine
I don't wanna take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I, we can't say goodbye

So, if you wake and find me gone
Hey, babe, carry on, you see, I need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love

While I'm in love
While I'm in love
While I'm in love
