Music: John Ross
There’s a fallen tree by a creek side
That you laid on, and told me
Don’t let the fear of losing me
Keep you from moving on
Far from the prying eyes
Of our friends who came
By the fireflies that show a way
We’re starting to slip away
That's when I was in love
Just for you to hear me play
Starting to realize
I’m the one that doesn’t stay
(2x)
I’m the one that goes away
I’m the one that goes away
Ancient stars through our fingertips
Sizzling wind through the maple trees
A hummin' cross
That just took off
Fall asleep
Under the piano
Don’t wake up
Until tomorrow
(3x)
I’m the one that goes away
I’m the one that goes away
