By your leave, I think that I'll be going now
I think I've stayed a little long
I looked up all my mother's recipes
I can't think what I did wrongWe go to a restaurant, but you don't like wine
You say it's love you want, but there is no time
I realize, I can see it in your eyes
You keep staring at the floorI used to look at your school photographs
But I don't have them anymore
I wonder who's in my old college rooms
Or stuck on my old locker doorI dream of the ships at sea, on a stormy night
I wish that it was me, but I wake in fright
I realize, I can see it in your eyes
I've only got myself to blameWinter kisses when your lips were blue
Like chasing wild geese in the snow
Pressing faces on the window panes
But that's a long long time agoWe go to a restaurant
You say it's love you want
I realize, I can see it in your eyes
You're moving on to something more
