If You Leave Lyrics

If you leave, would you take hold of this cancer that's in me?
I won't need it anymore, I think you know what I mean
This tiny spot inside my heart
That was meant to house a star has grown cold

I've seen it happen a million times before but never to me
I guess some things are just the way they are

Carousels should run straight ahead and they should never have to stop
Broken dreams should be the ones where you get to wake up
I'm all for learning life's hard lessons but enough is enough, I'm feeling old

I've seen it happen a million times before just never to me

I'll surely run around when my head is gone And I should've worn this crown of fools
The first time I said hello

So if you leave, would you take hold of this cancer that's in me?
'Cause I won't need it anymore, I think you know what I mean
This tiny spot inside my heart
That was meant to house a star has grown cold

Seen it happen a million times before, never to me

I'll surely run around when my head is gone
I should've worn this crown of fools
The first time I said hello

And it's true that time can ease your mind
But head and heart can travel different roads
So be careful, careful, be careful that you don't grow cold
