Claimin' True
I'll let you alone and I'll let you walk on and
in your own good time you'll be
Back where the sun can find you, under the wise wishing tree
And with all of them made we'll lie under the shade and call it a jubilee
And I can tell by the way you're talking, that the past isn't letting you go
There's only so long you can take it all on,
and then the wrongs gotta be on its own
And when you're ready to leave it behind you,
you'll look back and all that you'll see
Is the wreckage and rust that yo
I Think I'll Say Goodbye
(Jim Rushing/Marshall Chapman)
I never tried to change you
But the hurt is changing me
I only wanna be myself
And you won't let that be
I can't play an actor's role
'Cause I can't live a lie
Life's too short and night's too long
To let them pass us by
So I'll be closing the door in the morning
And I won't wake you when I rise
'Cause there's nothing to say before going
You think that I said it all
So I think I'll say goodbye
Believin' came so easy when our love was flowin' free
But there's a wall of darkness where sunshine used to be
One more wrong tomorrow
Is one more wasted day
And holdin' on to love that's gone
We'll never find our way
So I'll be closing the door in the morning
And I won't wake you when I rise
'Cause there's nothing to say before going
You think that I said it all
So I think I'll say goodbye
