I’d Rather Leave While I’m In Love Lyrics By Rita Coolidge

    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
    you and i can’t say goodbye

    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

    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
    you and i can’t say goodbye

    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
    i still believe it’s best to leave while i’m in love
