Song Lyrics

I feel walking diving in tears
Water my roses with sweet liquor
Be a stranger to fears

But see I only wanted to be, be your girl
To love you in the ways you never know
But you can't love me, No you can't love
If you don't even love yourself
Oh I still wanna be there
But I got more enough in reasons
To see this ain't our season
I should be leavin'
Oh these leaves dancing in the dark

But you got my heart (heart)
And I don't want us to part baby
You're sweeter than spring
Nobody's ever been more
I know you'd give me the shirt off of your shoulders
You'd give me the world Ooh

But see I only wanted to be your woman
To give you all the things I know I can
But you can't know me, no you can't know me
If you don't even know yourself
Oh I still wanna be there
But I got more enough in reasons
To see this ain't our season
I should be leavin'
Oh these leaves dancing in the dark

But somehow you got my heart
And these leave I want 'em to fall
And these leaves I can't shake 'em off
With these leaves I can't leave at all at all

And I should be dancing, baby dancing (oh)
And I should be dancing, baby dancing
Yeah I should be grooving, baby grooving
Yeah I should be moving on my own

But you got my heart
And I don't want us to part baby No

We keep on blooming
You plant a smile everyday
Oh, but I could be swimming in the dead end
'Cause I know you're ways (oh)

But see I only wanted to be, be your girl
To show you all the things you've never known
But you can't love me
No you can't love me
If you don't even love yourself
Oh I still wanna be there
But I got more enough in reasons
To see this ain't our season
I should be leavin'
These leaves dancing in the dark

But somehow you got my heart, oh baby
Oh darling, come on baby
And I should be dancing, baby dancing (I should be dancing baby, oh)
And I should be dancing, baby dancing
Yeah I should be grooving, baby grooving
Yeah I should be moving on my own
