It's that farewell time for talking
Time to say just what you're feeling
All the secrets you're concealing can come out
There's no reason for holding back
And that's what leaving's about.

There's no special form to follow
Just a point we can agree on
All the time for putting me on has ran out
I didn't always believe you girl
And that's what leaving's about.

It's about time all of the time
We spent together yet so all alone
And it's about people you and me
The two we've never known.

And there's a trace of recognition
That's been there since I first met you
But one day I will forget you I have no doubt
It may take of it long but then
That's what leaving's about...
