You're leavin' too soon 

You oughta try believin' just for a day or two 

You're trying to be wise 

and that's a foolish thing to do 

close the door you're leaving too soon 



You'll never learn to fly unless you learn to fall 

You'll never know the answers 

'till you've heard the call 

you can't turn your back until you face it all 

take my word you're leavin' too soon 



You're leavin' too soon 

You oughta try believin' just for a day or two 

You're trying to be wise 

and that's a foolish thing to do 

close the door you're leaving too soon 



babe you shouldn't go until 

you know just what I mean 

now, “happy ever after”, I have never seen 

but still we might come closer than we've ever been 

come over here you're leaving too soon 



you're leaving too soon...
