Loretta Lynn
"I'll Leave The Leaving Up To You" lyrics

I'll Leave The Leaving Up To You

Lately we don't talk much
Lately we don't love much
We're just going through the motions
When we do

A good warm love turning colder
Now it's everything but over
So I'm gonna leave the leaving
Up to you

I'm not strong enough
To walk away
I'm much too weak
For all the love I gave

Cause breaking chains
Untying strings
Is something I can't do
So I'm gonna leave the leaving
Up to you

But now there's something in you
That makes my touch offend you
And the little smiles I see
Are less than few

But I'd never try to hold you
To the things that we both swore to
So I'm gonna leave the leaving
Up to you

I'm not strong enough
To walk away
I'm much too weak
For all the love I gave

Cause breaking chains
Untying strings
Is something I can't do
So I'm gonna leave the leaving
Up to you
