Lynn Anderson Lyrics for Song: Don't Leave the Leaving Up to Me
 Lyrics for Album: The World of Lynn Anderson [Columbia] [1971]
 
 
 
 1656>(Liz Anderson)
 
 
 
 I didn't fail, I gave a tryin'
 
 Tryin' to hold you to me
 
 I let you go, we'll say goodbye
 
 But don't leave the leaving up to me.
 
 
 
 Our great love we had is over all we cherished is gone
 
 Nothing ever last forever it's time for moving along
 
 But I can't go my feet won't take me
 
 I can't go so please don't make me.
 
 
 
 Be the one to make the move to be free
 
 One goodbye deserves another so now goodbye it would be
 
 We'd let go of one another
 
 But don't leave the leaving up to me.
 
 
 
 --- Instrumental ---
 
 
 
 Why do I hate so much to lose you why this hurting inside
 
 Is it you I'm holding onto or is it only my pride
 
 Don't stay along the doubts unfold you
 
 I make me a chain of tears and hold you.
 
 
 
 Don't wait around for you may never be free
 
 One goodbye deserves another so now goodbye it would be
 
 We'd let go of one another
 
 But don't leave the leaving up to me.
 
 
 
 Don't leave the leaving up to me.
 
 Don't leave the leaving up to me...
