When You Leave Lyrics

I lost all faith in reason
When no reason took a love from me
So I'll ask you my friend
if the stories were pretend
You say "I love you and I always will"
You invent a brand new plan for the seasons
How to turn those leaves of fall green
Sayin' death you know
it comes and goes, ain't a friend or a foe
just as long as you know
I love you and I always will

But when you leave, I lose control
And I hate to have you leave and lose control
When you leave I lose contol
And I'd hate to have to even lose control
It's alright Ma

Christmas eve in the back
of a church with a demon
She turns and says to me
"All is well, you never fell, don't kiss and tell, I swear to hell
I love you and I always will"
But when you leave, I lose control
And hey, I'd hate to have to even lose control
But I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
When it all comes down I'd like to say I know
When you leave I lose contol
And I'd hate to have to leave
and lose control
It's alright Ma
In a thousand years from now
when they find Jesus
In a monument of Elvis Presley
I'll ask in the end
if the stories were pretend
"I love you and I always will"

When you leave, I lose control
And baby I'd hate to have you leave and lose control
But I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
When it all comes down I'd like to say I know
But when you leave I lose contol
And I'd hate to have you leave and lose control
It's alright Ma
