I Am Leaving — текст песни (The Style Council)

Tired of dust and dirt to clean
This place once loved, now makes me sick
I`ve got to get away
I`ve passed the places of my youth
Torn out pages from a well-read book
I dream awhile - but I leave it anyway

But I can still remember when
I could still laugh and call you friend
And only you -

You used to talk so wild and free
Now you can`t remember what you used to be
You`ve lost the will

You could never be wrong
No, you were never that strong

Some are listening
Some are doing
Some are wasting away
I am leaving

Some cannot hear
Some are waiting
Most are writhing away

Torn between the deep blue sea
From a place on earth that appeals to me
Hell I can`t swim anyway
But not for me but those I leave
Think of them as dying leaves that may bloom again

I`m leaving
