Leave before the dam breaks

LEAVE BEFORE THE DAM BREAKS


I’m gonna leave before the dam breaks
Move onto the higher ground
I’m gonna leave before the dam breaks
Before I come tumbling down

Oh there’s a light in your eye that’s been there too long
And I’m sure that it’s not shining there for me
Well there’s a spring in your step when you’re coming down the hall
Well then it all but disappears when you get to me

Oh I might just be wrong
But I think I’m right
But I’m gonna pack my things and get away ooh get away

CH

Oh we hardly speak at all when we’re on our own
And you always have some place that you need to be
When I catch you talking quietly on the phone
Who is she
Well you hang it up when you catch sight of me

I’m gonna leave before the dam breaks – I’m gonna leave
Move onto the higher ground - move onto a higher ground
I’m gonna leave before the dam breaks - I gotta leave
Before I come tumbling down - Before I come tumbling down
I’m gonna leave before the dam breaks – Save my soul
Move onto the higher ground - I gotta leave
Gonna leave before the dam breaks
