I Will Never Leave

Shawn Phillips


She walks kinda funny and she likes to have money
And she smiles like the sun at times
She's a paradox born in a woman's form
That makes you want to lose your mind

So I want to tell you how I really love you
I will put your heart at ease
And you can be assured that I will never leave
And you can be assured that I will never leave
Now we're in the winter of the months ahead
And we are dreaming of the years to come
Of the summers and the fall and the cycles of it all
That's not readily apparent to some

Falling heir to the throne of a love that's rare
Will put your heart at ease
And you can be assured that I will never leave
And you can be assured that I will never leave

As we're growing through I know I'll never know
Everything there is to know about you.
The quickness of the wit and the solitary fit
Shatter the myths I would build around you
All around you

So I want to tell you how I really love you
I will put your heart at ease
And you can be assured that I will never leave
And you can be assured that I will never leave

For your peace of mind I'd suggest a little wine
And a window where the stars reside.
When your dreams are fulfilled I'll be there loving still
And I'll catch you on the other side.

And we'll disperse on a tour of the universe
That will keep your heart at ease
And you can be assured that I will never leave
And you can be assured that I will never leave
