Babe I’m leavin’
I must be on my way
The time is drawing near
My train is going
I see it in your eyes
The love, the need, your tears
But I’ll be lonely without you
And I’ll need your love to see me through
So please believe me
My heart is in your hands
And I’ll be missing you
You know it’s you babe
Whenever I get weary and I’ve had enough, Feel like
giving up
You know it’s you babe
Givin’ me the courage and the strength I need
Please believe that it’s true
Babe, I love you
repeat chorus
Babe, I’m leavin’
I’ll say it once again
And somehow try to smile
I know the feeling we’re tryin’ to forget
If only for a while
‘Cause I’ll be lonely without you
And I’ll need your love to see me through
Please believe me
My heart is in your hands
‘Cause I’ll be missing you
Babe, I love you
Babe, I love you
Ooo-oo-oo-oo, babe
