If I Turn You Away Lyrics

It won't be hard to say goodbye
I seen this road before
And I survived through every bend
You're just a page I need to turn
and I'll be on my way
For me it's over not the end.
Why should I stay and fight another lonely night?
I got no reason to pretend.
You lied too many times and I've got too much pride
To let myself be fooled again.

So if I turn you away, it's really nothing more
Than my way to say that it's over.
If I turn you away, you'll know the reason why
I just couldn't stay anymore

Somewhere a stranger waits for me
with eyes to warm my soul
His arms will hold me night and day.
You taught me everything I know
'bout breaking hearts and so
I think it's time for me to say
You've had your way too long and I've been oh so wrong
To be a fool and not be gone.
I'll tell you here and now, I'll make it through somehow
I'll find it easy to go on.

So if I turn you away, it's really nothing more
Than my way to say that it's over.
If I turn you away, you'll know the reason why
I just couldn't stay anymore

(sax)
You lied too many times and I've got too much pride
To let myself be fooled again.

So if I turn you away, it's really nothing more
Than my way to say that it's over.
If I turn you away, you'll know the reason why
I just couldn't stay anymore

So if I turn you away, it's really nothing more
Than my way to say that it's over.
If I turn you away, (if I turn you away) you'll know the reason why
I just couldn't stay anymore

So if I turn you away (turn you away), it's really nothing more
Than my way to say that it's over.
If I turn you away, you'll know the reason why
I just couldn't stay anymore (fade)
