Earth, Wind and Fire

I'm takin' that train, I'm goin' back home
Yeah, I'm leavin' you, babe, I gotta be all alone
Guess it's better this way
'Cause I know what's gonna go down if I stay
Yeah, babe

Now we're both afraid of breakin' each other's hearts
So let's move on quickly before the hurtin' starts
But before I go, babe, there are some things that I've gotta say
Yeah, babe

You were my earth, wind, and fire, my only heart's desire
My whole inspiration, honey child
You were my soul satisfaction with your sweet love transaction
But it's time for me to say goodbye

Now I know you're surprised, and I'm kind of surprised too
But I thought it over, and this is the best thing to do
I can feel somethin' comin', and I ain't gonna wait around
'Til it arrives, no, no, baby

Now I've been here before, and babe, so have you
And experience tells me I've gotta go on to somethin' new
Honey, please stop that cryin'
'Cause lovin' and hurtin's what keeps this world alive, oh, yeah

You were my earth, wind, and fire, my only heart's desire
My whole inspiration, honey child
You were my soul satisfaction with your sweet love transaction
But it's time for me to say goodbye

My only heart's desire
Honey child
You were my soul satisfaction with your sweet love transaction
But it's time for me to say goodbye
