Leaving the City
Róisín Murphy

Wish I was taking you with me

No more goodbyes
No more goodbyes
Tell me to stay home
There's no place

No more goodbyes
No more goodbyes
Tell me to stay home
(I'm leaving I'm leaving)
No more goodbyes
No more goodbyes
Tell me to stay home
(I'm leaving I'm leaving)
There's no place
(I'm leaving I'm leaving)
There's no place
No more goodbyes

No exotic country
I found my journey's end
When I found you
Don't let me go

Won't leave town
Or go around
If you say so
Won't leave you know if you say so

Can't stay always going away
Never knowing the way home
Another hour
Another day
Surely we
Will find a way somehow

Leaving the city today
We're leaving the city
Soon I will be gone
Leaving the city today
Soon I will be gone
(Leaving, leaving, leaving)

No more goodbyes
No more goodbyes
Tell me to stay home
(I'm leaving I'm leaving)
No more goodbyes
No more goodbyes
Tell me to stay home
(I'm leaving I'm leaving)
There's no place
There's no place
(I'm leaving I'm leaving)
There's no place
There's no place
There's no place
(I'm leaving I'm leaving)

There's no place
I'd rather be
Than here dear
If I call you dear
It's because you are

There's no face
I'd rather see
There's no fear
Don't be afraid to say
Stay another day
Then another day
(Don't be afraid to say it)

Oh hold on
Don't you be gone too long baby
Another kiss
One more caress
An ego no
Another yes

Leaving the city today
Nothing about here to say
A D F see A F
D F see E D see E

We're leaving the city today
Why can't I get you to ask me stay
Don't you want to let the music play
D F see E D see D

We're leaving the city today
Is there something I've left here to say
A D F see A F D F see E D see D
Let the music play

(Don't you want to let the music play?)

Mmmhmm
Soon I will be gone
(I'm leaving)
