Leah if you love me you'll let me go free
Your arms enfold me they chain me to thee
Children are wishes that never come true
Even the least of them come to leave you
And I'm lost in your swell
And I'm yours can't you tell
Leah if you love me you must kill your heart
There'll be no life for me 'till we're apart
So many songs I have sung here for you
Let this boy fly 'fore his young life is through
And I'm lost in your swell
And I'm yours can't you tell
Your arms enfold me they chain me to thee
Children are wishes that never come true
Even the least of them come to leave you
And I'm lost in your swell
And I'm yours can't you tell
Leah if you love me you must kill your heart
There'll be no life for me 'till we're apart
So many songs I have sung here for you
Let this boy fly 'fore his young life is through
And I'm lost in your swell
And I'm yours can't you tell
