Compassionate Man Lyrics - 40/40: The Best Selection - Olivia Newton-john

(John Farrar/Chris Christian) 

Love you were kind and much older 

Foolish but wiser than me 

Am I becoming an anchor 

Holding you back from the sea 

Restlessly you stand there, crying silently 

It must be so hard being easy on me 

Compassionate man, so gentle 

Trying hard to shelter me 

Compassionate man, so kind 

But the bottom line will be what it will be 

You're leaving me, leaving me

Love, my whole life was a desert 

Then gently your love fell like rain 

We lived for awhile in a garden 

But now I'm a desert again 

Come right out and say it 

Tell me honestly 

It must be so hard being easy on me

Compassionate man, so gentle 

Trying hard to shelter me 

Compassionate man, so kind 

But the bottom line will be what it will be 

You're leaving me, leaving me 

You're leaving me 

You're leaving me 

You're leaving me
