Your Loving Takes The Leaving Out Of Me

If you ever see me starin' at birds flyin' to south
And you call my name I don't answer
If you ever catch me searchin' through the closet in the hall
For that old beatup decal covered suitcase
If my walks take me further from the house every day
And at night my mind is a million miles away

Take me in your arms and baby hold me strong
Cause your loving takes the leaving
Yes your loving takes the leaving out of me
[ ac.guitar ]
When the autumn leaves start fallin' and swirlin' through the streets
And you feel a lonely wind in our room
And you look into my eyes and see the distand pleading wink
Of a dream I was chasing when I met you
Nothing's changed I still love you just as much as before
But if you wake up some night and I'm heading for the door

Take me in your arms...
Yes your loving takes the leaving
Yes your loving takes the leaving out of me
