It's not easy
It's never been easy
To let anyone
See the sentimental side of me
Hard as I try, I can't help but show
It's my heart you're taking as you go
Don't like goodbyes, tears or sighs
I'm not too good at leaving time
I got no taste for grieving time
No, no, no, not me
You've been my near one
Ever my dear one
I never thought that you would find another love
A different kind
But it came to be
Now that your future is looking up
Forget the past and go fill your loving cup
But remember, remember leaving is fine
And the world overhead
Has a clear new shine
I won't be grieving now that you're leaving
It's traveling time and you must move on
Found someone that you can lean upon
And if I could arrange it
Oh, would I care to change it
Not me...not me...
It's never been easy
To let anyone
See the sentimental side of me
Hard as I try, I can't help but show
It's my heart you're taking as you go
Don't like goodbyes, tears or sighs
I'm not too good at leaving time
I got no taste for grieving time
No, no, no, not me
You've been my near one
Ever my dear one
I never thought that you would find another love
A different kind
But it came to be
Now that your future is looking up
Forget the past and go fill your loving cup
But remember, remember leaving is fine
And the world overhead
Has a clear new shine
I won't be grieving now that you're leaving
It's traveling time and you must move on
Found someone that you can lean upon
And if I could arrange it
Oh, would I care to change it
Not me...not me...
