It's Time For You To Go

© 2001 Elizabeth Marquez

(V)
When we first started out
Our fire was spectacular
But now the burns are hurting
The scars are getting deeper
Something must have happened
Cause you’ve become so distant
Your words are very few
Your touch is nonexistent
(C)
I’m so tired of crying
Worrying I’d done something wrong
I’m too tired of trying
To make you feel you belonged
For a while I was afraid
You’d leave me here alone
But I’m not scared anymore
It’s time for you to go
(V)
What did I have to do
To keep you from slipping away
I gave everything I had
To make you want to stay
It seems clear to me now
That there’s nothing I could do
So I guess it’s time for me
To say goodbye to you
(C)
Cause
I’m so tired of crying
Worrying I’d done something wrong
I’m too tired of trying
To make you feel you belonged
For a while I was afraid
You’d leave and me here alone
But I’m not scared anymore
It’s time for you to go
(B)
Once there was a chance for us
But you refused to discuss
The reasons why your love for me died
So I guess this is the end
I hate losing you, my friend
I just wish we could say we tried
(C)
But
I’m so tired of crying
Worrying I’d done something wrong
I’m too tired of trying
To make you feel you belonged
For a while I was afraid
You’d leave me here alone
I’m not scared anymore
It’s time for you to go
