Leslie Davis Lyrics
Leaving Standing Tall Lyrics
Verse Number One:
Everything Ive tried to do
has always turned out wrong
It took a lot of love inside of me
to keep me here this long
Its too late
to dim the lights again
expecting me to crawl
So tonight
Im gonna leave you
and Im leaving standing tall
THE CHORUS:
YES, IM PICKING UP THE PIECES
OF THIS HEART THAT YOUVE BEEN BREAKING
.
AND, IM DOWN ON MY KNEES
JUST TO TRY AND FIND THEM ALL
.
BUT WHEN I GET UP
ONE LONG LAST LOOK
IS ALL THAT ILL BE TAKING
.
SO TONIGHT, IM GONNA LEAVE YOU
AND, IM LEAVIN STANDING TALL
.
Verse Number Two:
If I could see inside your mind
I wonder what Id find
Theres something there
thats made me come so close
to losing mine
The tallest tree
will sometimes bend
but that wont make it fall
Im packing up to leave you
and Im leaving standing tall
.
THE CHORUS:
YES, IM PICKING UP THE PIECES
OF THIS HEART THAT YOUVE BEEN BREAKING
.
AND, IM DOWN ON MY KNEES
JUST TO TRY AND FIND THEM ALL
.
BUT WHEN I GET UP
ONE LONG LAST LOOK
IS ALL THAT ILL BE TAKING
.
SO TONIGHT, IM GONNA LEAVE YOU
AND, IM LEAVIN STANDING TALL
.
Hard Modulation
THE CHORUS:
YES, IM PICKING UP THE PIECES
OF THIS HEART THAT YOUVE BEEN BREAKING
.
AND, IM DOWN ON MY KNEES
JUST TO TRY AND FIND THEM ALL
.
BUT WHEN I GET UP
ONE LONG LAST LOOK
IS ALL THAT ILL BE TAKING
.
SO TONIGHT, IM GONNA LEAVE YOU
AND, IM LEAVIN STANDING TALL
.
