Leaving Tomorrow

from Shelley Segal EP by Shelley Segal

/

about

I wrote this tune the night before I headed off on a year long back packing trip in 2007.

lyrics

I'm leaving tomorrow haven't you heard
But I'm still waiting to hear a word from you
I'm leaving tomorrow to see the world
But I still wanted to share my world with you

I know we're not always around enough to show we care
But when it's important we both know we'll be there
But this time it looks like you're not gonna show
I hope you come before I go

I'm leaving tomorrow and you haven't said goodbye
I'll wait a bit longer coz I'm still hoping you'll try
I'm leaving tomorrow I'm not gonna remind you again
It's up to you, it's up to you now
To see me before the end

Actually I'm quite sick of always looking over my shoulder
To see if you are following behind
I've had enough; don't think you're someone I still want to know
If you don't come before I go

Eventually you start to see that words don't mean a thing
Especially when someone can't get off their ass to bring
A smile to your face and tell you they have a place for you
In their heart for you

I'm leaving tomorrow haven't you heard
But I'm still waiting to hear a word from you
I'm leaving tomorrow to see the world
But I still wanted to share my world with you

I know we're not always around enough to show we care
But when it's important we both know i'll be there
But this time it looks like you're not gonna show
Coz you're not here and now I have to go
