"If I Leave" lyrics - A DAY TO REMEMBER
[Intro:]
Let's go!
In the beginning, I was upfront
Nothing to think about, you'd always hear me out
We made a pact and never gave up
When everything would change, we'd always stay the same
Something went wrong along the way
You come around and there's nothing left to say
It's like we're strangers anyway
What more could you ask of me?
[Pre-Chorus:]
It's been a long time coming
But everyone's going to hear me out
[Chorus:]
If I leave, bet you'll wish I stayed
Make you regret all the things you said to me
You know that time can't help us now
If I leave this, if I leave this way
I've always been a man of action
Never let anything keep a hold of me
Could always tell when something's missing
Like I knew everything, except for you and me
I can't make you want to stay
God knows I tried, but this broke under our weight
I still gave it everything
I guess I'll never catch my break
[Pre-Chorus:]
It's been a long time coming
But everyone's going to hear me now
[Chorus:]
If I leave, bet you'll wish I stayed
Make you regret all the things you said to me
You know that time can't help us now
You know that time can't help us now
If I leave, I shall move away
And try to right all the wrongs we've ever made
Won't let your problems weigh me down
If I leave this, if I leave this way
[Bridge:]
Never thought you'd be the last one standing
Never thought that we would come this far
You'll always be there looking over my shoulder
I've come to terms with exactly what we are
Never thought you'd be the last one standing
Never thought that we would come this far
You'll always be there looking over my shoulder
I've come to terms with exactly what we are
[Chorus:]
If I leave, bet you'll wish I stayed
Make you regret all the things you said to me
You know that time can't help us now
You know that time can't help us now
If I leave, I shall move away
And try to right all the wrongs we've ever made
Won't let your problems weigh me down
If I leave this, if I leave this way
[Outro:]
Never thought I'd be the last one standing
Never thought that we would come this far
You'll always be there looking over my shoulder
When I leave this, when I leave this way, yeah!
[Instrumental Outro]
