Artist/Band: Carole King
Lyrics for Song: Why Are You Leaving
Lyrics for Album: Now That Everything's Been Said [The City] [1968]



You told me that you had to go

You said you could not stay here

That being here just made you sad

For sunshine, ships and easy land

And you miss the pretty things you had

So what am I to tell you



Why are you leaving

Why are you leaving

And what's that secret sorrow that you're carrying



You said you were not born to win

But I don't think you mean it

That you think you'd better live alone

And gather people one by one

Oh, but when each new day is done

Will you turn and face my window



Why are you leaving

Why are you leaving

And what's that secret sorrow that you're carrying



As the day begins to fade

Electric lamps, they trick you

Into seeing faces on the wall

Old memories that you recall

And you're afraid you'll lose them all

And the promises they made you



Why are you leaving

Why are you leaving

And what's that secret sorrow that you're carrying



Why are you leaving

Why are you leaving

Why are you leaving

Why are you leaving



Why are you leaving

Why are you leaving
