I Want You to Leave
You think I want you to leave
Its not that simple to me
It all depends on the mood
Innocent thoughts are misconstrued

Neither of us can make tonight
The separations are not right
You think I want you to leave
Its not that simple to me

I want to see you dancing
Tell me all the things that make you laugh
Near the church that we can't name
Hoping that things will stay the same
So I wait to be renewed
I'm overwhelmed by thoughts of you

When this keeps breaking
You leave me with no option deceived
Adorn your walls with the stars
Parading your heroes so far

You think I want you to leave
Its not that simple to me
You think I want you to leave
Its not that simple

Hand me down lovers are worn out
Exchanging glances and pouts
Leave me with something I can hold
Lend me a T-shirt to get home

So little holds my interest
I find it hard to concentrate
Near the church that we can't name
Hoping that things will stay the same
So I wait to be renewed
I'm overwhelmed by thoughts of you
How was I to realise
You were dressing in disguise
And so I wait to be renewed
I'm overwhelmed by thoughts of you
