I said I'd leave you anytime I'm ready
Some April when all the land is wet
Some summer, some fall, or maybe winter
I'll go someday, but I'm not ready yet
I should've left the day your love was dyin'
I passed up every date I ever set
I know I'll leave you when my heart is ready
I'm still around, 'cause I'm not ready yet
Well, I've left a hundred times, but you don't know that
Because I'm ashamed to tell how far I get
You didn't, you don't, you'll never love me
And someday I'll go, but I'm not ready yet
I should've left the day your love was dyin'
I passed up every date I ever set
I know I'll leave you when my heart is ready
I'm still around, 'cause I'm not ready yet
