So Anyway

(album: Next To Normal (Original Broadway Cast Recording) - 2009)

[Diana:]
So anyway, I'm leaving
I thought you'd like to know
You're faithful, come what may
But clearly, I can't stay
We'd both go mad that way
So here I go

And anyway, I'm leaving
I guess that you can see
I'll try this on my own
A life I've never known
I'll face the dread alone
But I'll be free

With you always beside me to catch me when I fall
I'd never get to know the feel of solid ground at all
With you always believing that we can still come through
It makes me feel the fool to know that it's not true

What doctors call dysfunction we tried to call romance
And true, it's quite a trick to tell the dancers from the dance
But rather than let chance take me, I'll take a chance

I'll take a chance on leaving
It's that, or stay and die
I loved you once, and though
You love me still, I know
It's time for me to fly

I loved you once, and though
I love you still, I know
It's time for me to go
And so, goodbye
