Lyrics

I'll Leave Mine

You don't need these anymore
Not now, not the picket fence, or shiny floors
You will know for sure when you walk right out that door

You've tasted all the finest of the fine
All the silky food and deep red wine
You want the best in life, you know that this is right

If there's just one thing you do for me, make it this ...

You leave your town,
I'll leave mine
We will find our promise land
You leave your love,
I'll leave mine

Won't you tell me the story
The sunshine and the glory of the day we met
Your wandering eyes, my stellar smile, a secret to be kept

I met you by the stable
Neither one of us was able to turn away
Your touch so light, my beating heart, our passion could not wait

If there's just one thing you do for me, make it this ...

You leave your town,
I'll leave mine
We will find our promise land
You leave your love,
I'll leave mine

Let's not speak of our commitments
I will leave the laundry and the dirty dishes
We'll run in summer air, we'll run til no one knows we're there

Yes I know you have your children, your estate
But this is true love, do you hear what I say?
Nothing will compare to the love child on her way

If there's just one thing you do for me, make it this ...

You leave your town,
I'll leave mine
We will find our promise land
You leave your love,
I'll leave mine
