Leave You Now

[Verse 1]
Ten long years I've spent in the sun where I
Broke my back to operate the gun, but I
Never cracked and never gave you up
I just did my time for you

[Chorus]
Yeah, I can't leave you now
Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow
(How's that for a compliment, girl?
How's that for a compliment?)

[Verse 2]
When you sleep, don't dream of me
I don't wanna break your heart 'til I'm breaking free
When I get out out I'm gonna run with you
We're gonna make our way to America

[Chorus]
Yeah, I can't leave you now
Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow

[Verse 1]
(Yeah, I can't leave you now)
Ten long years I've spent in the sun where I
Broke my back to operate the gun, but I
(Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow)
Never cracked and never gave you up
I just did my time for you

[Bridge]
And they can call me public enemy
Brand my skin for treachery
What they long to have, they can't take away
From me
My hope is growing by the power of love
The highest wall that they erect is not a prison enough
And like the river that is winding takes its water to sea
The only ending that is fitting is you with me, baby

[Chorus]
Yeah, I can't leave you now
Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow

[Verse 2]
(Yeah, I can't leave you now)
When you sleep, don't dream of me
I don't wanna break your heart 'til I'm breaking free
(Yeah, I got nowhere to go anyhow)
When I get out out I'm gonna run with you
We're gonna make our way to America
