Leaving now Songtext
von Maple & Rye

Born in ′39 when the world war came
You had bigger wars to fight
Had a sister too who was just the same
She was lost that night when you lost your light oooh

Can't give up though you′re dead inside
Think of all the people close
Far more pain than you could ever hide
Now it took too much, now it took too much oooh

Hold my hands
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Hold my hands
Don′t leave me now
Don′t leave me now

You gave so much to your family
Made us all feel safe and sound
And we tried with love our best cavalry
Watched you fade away and at last set free oooh


I followed you down to the flood once more
Watched you sail off with that sister of yours
Reached the horizon but I had to stay
Hope we'll all unite on that boat one day

I followed you down to the flood once more
Watched you sail off with that sister of yours
Reached the horizon but I had to stay
Hope we′ll all unite on that boat one day

Hold my hands
We're leaving now
We′re leaving now
Hold my hands
We're leaving now
We′re leaving now

Hold my hands
We're leaving now
We're leaving now
Hold my hands
We′re leaving now
We′re leaving now


I followed you down to the flood once more
Watched you sail off with that sister of yours
Reached the horizon but I had to stay
Hope we'll all unite on that boat one day

I followed you down to the flood once more
Watched you sail off with that sister of yours
Reached the horizon but I had to stay
