I'd rather leave while I'm in love While I still believe the meaning of the word I'll keep my dreams and just pretend That you and I are never gonna end Too many times I've seen A rose die on the vine When somebody's heart gets broken Usually it's mine I don't want to take the chance Of being hurt again Cause you and I can't say good-bye So if you wake and find me gone Oh baby carry on You see I need my fantasy I still believe It's best to leave while I'm in love Too many times I've seen A rose die on the vine When somebody's heart gets broken Usually it's mine I don't want to take the chance Of being hurt again Cause you and I can't say good-bye So if you wake and find me gone Oh baby carry on You see I need my fantasy I still believe It's best to leave while I'm in love I still believe It's best to leave while I'm in love
