Knowing When to Leave

Go while the going is good

Knowing when to leave

May be the smartest thing that anyone can learn

Go

I'm afraid my heart

Isn't very smart

Fly while you still have your wings

Knowing when to leave

Won't ever let you reach the point of no return

Fly

Foolish as it seems

I still have my dreams

So I keep hoping

Day after day as I wait for the man I need

Night after night

And I wish for a love that can be

Though I'm sure that

No one can tell

Where their wishes and hopes will lead

Somehow I feel

There is happiness just waiting there for me

When someone walks in your life

You'd just better be sure he's right

'Cause if he's wrong

There are heartaches and tears you must pay

Keep both of your

Eyes on the door, never let it get out of sight

Just be prepared

When the time has come for you to run away[Outro]

Sail when the wind starts to blow

But like a fool I don't know

When to leave
