Don’t Leave The Leaving Up To Me Lynn Anderson

I didn't fail I gave a tryin'
Tryin' to hold you to me
I let you go we'll say goodbye
But don't leave the leaving up to me
Our great love we had is over
All we cherished is gone

Nothing ever last forever
It's time for moving along
But I can't go my feet won't take me
I can't go so please don't make me

Be the one to make the move to be free
One goodbye deserves another
So now goodbye it would be
We'd let go of one another
But don't leave the leaving up to me

Why do I hate so much to lose you
Why this hurting inside
Is it you I'm holding onto
Or is it only my pride

Don't stay along the doubts unfold you
I make me a chain of tears and hold you
Don't wait around for you
May never be free
