Let Me Know – © 2008 Richard Ruane

If you leave me, let me know

I’ll wait ‘til you tell me so

Wait until I hear

You whisper in my ear

You’ve gone away

But until that day

Sweet love will stay

And hold me

If you leave me in the spring

Snow will melt and birds will sing

Leaves come to the trees

Flowers scent the breeze

In spite of me

But until that day

Sweet love will stay

And hold me

If you leave me in the fall

The world will hardly know at all

Trouble I may know

Won’t make the cold winds blow

Or winter come

But until that day

Sweet love will stay

And hold me

If you leave, I won’t despair

Heal by fire, earth and air

Water lift my soul

Carry me whole

Away from here

But until that day

Sweet love will stay

And hold me

But until that day

Sweet love will stay

And hold me

But until that day

Sweet love will stay
