I'd Rather Be Gone

(album: Spies Of Life - 1981)

I gave you my word
That I would be yours
If you would be mine

I don't want your love
All of your love
Some if the time

If you give to him what you give to me
We might as well end it quietly
And time will tell who's the lucky one

I'd rather be gone
Walking in the rain
Feeling like a fool
Who's out of his mind
I'd rather be gone
Dealing with the pain
Of leaving you behind
Can't you see
I'd rather be
Gone

Baby, you and I, we were meant to win
But here we are, just a "Could have been"
'Cause half your love, that's not enough for me

I'd rather be gone
Walking in the rain
Feeling like a fool
Who's out of his mind
I'd rather be gone
Dealing with the pain
Of leaving you behind
Can't you see
I'd rather be
Gone
