  • By your leave, I think that I'll be going now
    I think I've stayed a little long
    I looked up all my mother's recipes
    I can't think what I did wrong

    We go to a restaurant, but you don't like wine
    You say it's love you want, but there is no time
    I realize, I can see it in your eyes
    You keep staring at the floor

    I used to look at your school photographs
    But I don't have them anymore
    I wonder who's in my old college rooms
    Or stuck on my old locker door

    I dream of the ships at sea, on a stormy night
    I wish that it was me, but I wake in fright
    I realize, I can see it in your eyes
    I've only got myself to blame

    Winter kisses when your lips were blue
    Like chasing wild geese in the snow
    Pressing faces on the window panes
    But that's a long long time ago

    We go to a restaurant
    You say it's love you want
    I realize, I can see it in your eyes
    You're moving on to something more Writer/s: COLIN JAMES HAY
