I Can't Stand To Leave You

(Album: Women & Work - 2012)

I see your face when I close my eyes.
I hear your name when the wind's just right.
The setting sun is gone once more.
Each night is worse than the night before.

Now I can't stand to leave you, I can't take the weight of this world on my own.
And I don't know what I'll do, I don't think that I can make it all alone.

They say all can heal with time
That don't mean much to me tonight
Like city streets your eyes shine
And I'm lost out here with the losing kind

And I can't stand to leave you I can't take the weight of this world on my own.
I don't know what I'll do I don't think that I can make it all alone

Yes, I've felt this kinda pain. A hole straight through my chest.
Yes, I've felt this kinda pain. Seems now it's all that's left.
The songs they're never far away. Seems now it's all that's left.

Every song I hear. Your voice sings. The words are clear. Come back to me.
Come back to me, my only one. Come back to me. Your work is done.

I can't stand to leave you I can't take the weight of this world on my own.
And I don't know what I'll do I don't think that I can make it all alone.
