Leave You Now

Ten long years I've spent in the sun where I

Broke my back to operate the gun, but I

Never cracked and never gave you up

I just did my time for you

Yeah, I can't leave you now

Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow

(How's that for a compliment, girl?

How's that for a compliment?)

When you sleep, don't dream of me

I don't wanna break your heart 'til I'm breaking free

When I get out out I'm gonna run with you

We're gonna make our way to America

Yeah, I can't leave you now

Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow

(Yeah, I can't leave you now)

Ten long years I've spent in the sun where I

Broke my back to operate the gun, but I

(Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow)

Never cracked and never gave you up

I just did my time for you

And they can call me public enemy

Brand my skin for treachery

What they long to have, they can't take away

From me

My hope is growing by the power of love

The highest wall that they erect is not a prison enough

And like the river that is winding takes its water to sea

The only ending that is fitting is you with me, baby

Yeah, I can't leave you now

Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow

(Yeah, I can't leave you now)

When you sleep, don't dream of me

I don't wanna break your heart 'til I'm breaking free

(Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow)

When I get out out I'm gonna run with you

We're gonna make our way to America
