I'd rather leave while I'm in love
While I still believe the meaning of the word
I'll keep my dreams and just pretend
That you and I are never gonna end.

Too many times I've seen the rose die on the vine
somebody's heart gets broken usually it's mine
I don't want to take the chance of being hurt again
And you and I can't say good-bye.

So if you wake ane find me gone
On baby, carry on you see I need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love.

So if you wake and find me gone
Oh baby, carry on you see I need my fantasy
I still believe it's best to leave while I'm in love.
