Don't Leave The Leaving Up To Me Lyrics - Lynn Anderson

I didn't fail I gave a tryin' tryin' to hold you to me 

I let you go we'll say goodbye but don't leave the leaving up to me 

Our great love we had is over all we cherished is gone 

Nothing ever last forever it's time for moving along 

But I can't go my feet won't take me I can't go so please don't make me 

Be the one to make the move to be free 

One goodbye deserves another so now goodbye it would be 

We'd let go of one another but don't leave the leaving up to me 

[ steel ] 

Why do I hate so much to lose you why this hurting inside 

Is it you I'm holding onto or is it only my pride 

Don't stay along the doubts unfold you I make me a chain of tears and hold you 

Don't wait around for you may never be free 

One goodbye deserves another so now goodbye it would be 

We'd let go of one another but don't leave the leaving up to me 

Don't leave the leaving up to me don't leave the leaving up to me
