How Can I Leave You Again - John Denver

Di di di di di la la la la la la

In a spaceship over the mountains

Chasing rainbows in the setting sun

Leaving heart and home for the city of angels

I feel my life is undone

There are pathways winding below me

In pleasure I’ve gone where they go

In the quiet stillness I can hear symphonies

The loveliest music I know

How can I leave you again

I must be clear out of my mind

Lost in a storm I’ve gone blind

Oh, how can I leave you again

Oh, it’s been a long time since I’ve listened

Still longer since I’ve walked with you

For the first time I know what I’m missing

Some answers are no longer true

So I question the course that I follow

I’m doubtful and deep in despair

My heart is filled with impossible notions

Can it be you no longer care?

Still, I ride on the wings of a high wind

Blowing steady and strong behind me

As the clouds surrender my fate is for certain

I’m a sailor who runs to the sea

How can I leave you again

I must be clear out of my mind

Lost in a storm I’ve gone blind

Oh, how can I leave you again
