Leaving Man

Listen girl to the wind and its cry, can you hear it?

All the ways that you make yourself wrong, do you feel it?

There is no way to move the mountain of another

You'll only dig a trench beyond

All the ways to make a man your lover,

Then let him be gone

And I wait, yes I wait

For the sky to fall

And I wait, yes I wait

For the moon to run

Cross the lake

That brought me to you

And the water I let you

Float away into

And I love you, I do

But you can love a man,

Let him go too

You can make up a scene inside your head

Like I leaned up against you beside me in the bed

With your brow pressed close to mine

Knowing you're leaving kind

And I wait, yes I wait

For the sky to fall

And I wait, yes I wait

For the moon to run

Cross the lake

That brought me to you

And the water I let you

Float away into

And I love you, I do

But you can love a man,

Let him go too

And I'll leave my heart

inside your hands

You'll always be

my leaving man

And I wait, yes I wait

For the sky to fall

And I wait, yes I wait

For the moon to run

Cross the lake

That brought me to you

And the water I let you

Float away into

And I love you, I do

But you can love a man,

Let him go too

You can love a man,

Let him go too

And you can love the world,

let it burn down around you
