Artist: Phil Collins
Track: If Leaving Me Is Easy
Lyrics
I read all the letters, I read each word that you've sent to me
And though it's past now, and the words start to fade
All the memories I have still remain
I've kept all the pictures, but I hide my feelings so no-one knows
Oh sure my friends all come round, but I'm in a crowd on my own
It's 'cause you're gone now, but your heart, still remains
And it'll be here if you come again
You see, I'd heard the rumors, I knew before you let me know
But I didn't believe it, not you,
No you would not let me go
Seems I was wrong, but I love, I love you the same
And that's the one thing that you can't take away but just remember
If leaving me is easy,
And you know, coming back is harder
And leaving me is easy
And you know, coming back is harder
And leaving me is easy
And you know, coming back is harder
And leaving me is easy
And you know, coming back is harder
And leaving me is easy
And you know, coming back is harder
And leaving me is easy
And you know, coming back is harder
And leaving me is easy
And you know, coming back is harder
