Kelly Willis - Leavin'

There's a man upon a mountain -
He's a screaming at the stars
Says his love is gonna to save him
His passion is on fire
And if he listens very closely in the distance
He can hear the tires a squealing

The words we tell each other
They're the ones we want to hear
Times you throw 'em out and they come right back
Just trickle down your ear

And then other times you take a chance
All you're gonna hear's the paint a-peeling
Yeah but many things they change
When they left you barely breathing
But the girls all look the same
- When they're leaving - When they're leaving

Yeah this thing'll have you flying boy
And feeling ten feet four
A draggin' like a junkie
Just looking for one more
You know I spent some time busted up
In bed a-counting cracks up in the ceiling

Yeah but many things they change
When they left you barely breathing
But the girls all look the same
- when they're leaving - when they're leaving

Yeah but spring time blows the empty days
And oh they're clinging by their fingers
In the river of my mind
Thickly through the hazy fog the past just waves
- it's getting far behind

Yeah but everything keeps on changing
But it's just all the same
You know deadly serious
And yet somehow still a game
And who's the crazy fool
Who keeps on changing
What the winning hands' revealing

But I ain't ever had no silver tongue
But I give it all I got
But old Bulow he was right
It only burns you when it's hot
The strings are tied up tight
And the scars you know they're never really healing
Yeah but many things they change
When they left you barely breathing
But the girls all look the same
When they're leaving

I said the girls all look the same
When they're leaving
