I have spent my time in going
Never caring
Never knowing
Just what it was
I might be going to
And I'd planned on leaving you
The same just up and go
The way I came
But you may have noticed
I'm still here with you
Yes, there's one sweet reason
Why you're yet to see me leaving
Just one thing between
Here and gone
And it's wrapped up in your smile
And a pair of blue green eyes
And a touch that warms me
Like the fire's glow
Any number of a hundred things
Would send me down that road
But there's one sweet reason
I don't go
I've run from ties
I've cut my strings
I've unlocked doors
I've broken chains
Fading like a shadow
In the dawn
When other loves
Have turned to clay
I've turned my back
And walked away
And you should be the next
To find me gone
But there's one sweet reason
Why you're yet to see me leaving
Just one thing between
Here and gone
And it's wrapped up in your smile
And a pair of blue green eyes
And a touch that warms me
Like the fire's glow
Any number of a hundred things
Would send me down that road
But there's one sweet reason
I don't go
Now I find no need in going
From the sweet love
I've been knowing
To the restless ways
And days that I once knew
For more and more
I've looked to find
When leaving creeps
Across my mind
It's lost in all the days
I've spent with you
Yes, there's one sweet reason
Why you're yet to see me leaving
Just one thing between
Here and gone
And it's wrapped up in your smile
And a pair of blue green eyes
And a touch that warms me
Like the fire's glow
Any number of a hundred things
Would send me down that road
But there's one sweet reason
I don't go
You're the one sweet reason
I don't go
