Cliff Richard - The Leaving lyrics

She came to me and stood there
Not knowing how to start
The tear that shone upon her face
Almost broke my heart you see I love her

She tried to speak, to say the things
That still remain unsaid
The tears were flowing freely down her face
I had to turn my head because I love her

She wants to leave, I know she does
But she can't find the words
I couldn't help her
How can I, when I feel this way
There's nothing in the world that I
Could say to help her

Her tiny hands were trembling
Her suitcase by her side
She seemed to turn away to go
And through these tears I cried


I knew I love her

So ends another love song
But this one means much more
It's really quite ironical but
I never thought before to say I love her
Oh she wants to leave, I know she does
But she can't find the words
I couldn't help her
How can I, when I feel this way
There's nothing in the world that I
Could say to help her

Oh she wants to leave, I know she does
But she can't find the words
I couldn't help her
How can I, when I feel this way
There's nothing in the world that I
Could say to help her
