Song Lyrics

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 takin' as you go

Don't like goodbyes, tears or sighs
I'm not too good at leavin' time
I got no taste for grievin' 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 leavin' is fine
And the world overhead has a clear new shine

I won't be grievin' now that you're leavin'
It's travelin' 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

Harold Arlen, Truman Capote
