So Anyway

So Anyway - Alice Ripley

So anyway I'm leaving

I thought you'd like to know

You're faithful come what may

But clearly I can't stay

We'd both go mad that way

So here I go

And anyway I'm leaving

I guess that you can see

I'll try this on my own

A life I've never know

I'll face the dread alone

But I'll be free

With you always beside me

To catch me when I fall

I'd never get to know the feel

Of solid ground at all

With you always believing

That we can still come through

It makes me feel the fool

To know that it's not true

What doctors called dysfunction

We tried to call romance

And true it's quite a trick

To tell the dancers from the dance

But rather than let chance take me

I'll take a chance

I'll take a chance on leaving

It's that or stay and die

I loved you once and though

You love me still I know

It's time for me to fly

I loved you once and though

I love you still I know

It's time for me to go

And so goodbye
