lyrics

TIME TO LEAVE
(words&music © David Ross Macdonald 2004)

close the door and turn the key, it’s time to go
you were the best that you could be, let her go let her be
in the headlights as far as you can see, snow covered trees

sure as springtime autumn leaves return
only this time your lessons will be learned the hardest way

watch the corners, ice upon the road that you can’t see
you may be on the edge hoping you might fall
but there is more than you can see

sure as night time dawn will bring the day
only this time ice will melt away and warm the ground

she was your summer, you were her fall
and now you’re free, falling free
you hold the corners and fold it into three, gather speed

free as a highway you fly across the plain
love can be a mountain range where you can lose your way

close the door and leave the key, it’s time to go,
time to leave
