Watching you go
I would have stopped you if you really want to know
But when I held up my hand, my heart went cold
And I felt it sink low

When I finally drove away
All I wanted was to hear you say
Don’t go, baby, stay- stay- stay
But nothing gave me away

If I didn’t love you, I wouldn’t be filling the gulf with all my sorrowing
If you weren’t my anchor, I’d be at sea without a lifeboat,
Or drink for my dry throat
If I didn’t love you- I’d let you be

When the thing was done
On a war torn beach, two sit stunned
Watching waves roll in one by one
Waiting for the sun

If I didn’t love you, I wouldn’t be filling the gulf with all my sorrowing
If you weren’t my anchor, I’d be at sea without a lifeboat,
Or drink for my dry throat
If I didn’t love you- I’d let you be

If I didn’t love you
I’d let you be
I’d let you go
You know I won’t
