All I'Ll Have Left

Lately I’ve been thinking about our love affair And I’ve come to the conclusion we’re not getting anywhere And, Darling, though I love you with all of my heart I think the end is here and it’s time for us to part Why is it so hard to say good-bye Even though I know it has to be It’s simply because I’m losing everything And all that I’ll have left is me When we first got together I was looking for a friend But it turned into a love that I thought would never end And now the time has come to go our separate ways We danced to the piper’s music, but now it’s time to pay Why is it so hard to say good-bye Even though I know it has to be It’s simply because I’ve given up my soul And all that I’ll have left is me I guess I always knew that it would have to be this way But I was never looking forward to this day Now as you turn to leave tears fall from my eyes And all I want to do is crawl away and die Why is it so hard to say good-bye Even though I know it has to be It’s simply because you’re taking all I am And all that I’ll have left is me
