How Can I Leave You Again
John Denver
Intro - - - - Di di di di di la la la la la la (verse 1) In a spaceship over the mountains chasing rainbows in the setting sun leaving heart and home for the city of angels I feel my life is undone There are pathways winding below me In pleasure I’ve gone where they go In the quiet stillness I can hear symphonies the loveliest music I know How can I leave you again I must be clear out of my mind Lost in a storm I’ve gone blind Oh how can I leave you again (Bridge) Oh it’s been a long time since I’ve listened still longer since I’ve walked with you For the first time I know what I’m missing Some answers are no longer true so I (Verse 2) question the course that I follow I’m doubtful deep in despair My heart is filled with impossible notions Can it be you no longer care Still I ride on the wings of a high wind Blowing steady and strong behind me As the clouds surrender my fate is for certain I’m a sailor who runs to the sea but (Chorus) How can I leave you again I must be clear out of my mind Lost in a storm I’ve gone blind Oh how can I leave you again
