Leaving

by Robert Totty

Genre: Folk/Acoustic

Lyrics

Take me on up to the mountain
And scatter me into the breeze
Let my soul be released like a fountain
Let my spirit rise up to the trees

Tell my mother and my sister I love them
Tell my sons to be strong for my wife
Let them walk in the light of forgiveness
Let them share all the joy of my life

Hey Hey
Don’t it blow you away?
Like a thief in the night
They stole me away
Hey Hey
What more can I say?
You know that I’m leaving today

In a dream I walk with my Linda
And whisper in soft tones of love
Let her know that I’ll always be with her
Let her know that I’m watching above

Hey Hey
Don’t it blow you away?
Like a thief in the night
They stole me away
Hey Hey
What more can I say?
You know that I’m leaving today

Take me on up to the mountain
And scatter me into the breeze
Let my soul be released like a fountain
Let my spirit rise up to the trees
