The Right Thing To Do

(Tumbledown)
Words & Music by Alan Collins
Lyrics:

Goodbye baby
I won’t be back this way for quite a while
Don’t go cryin’
I wanna remember your face with a happy smile
And we can dream together for one last time
And maybe we can leave all our blues behind
Cause you know I’m gonna miss ya
And I’m tryin’ to convince myself
That leaving here’s the right thing to do

Thoughts are strayin’
Back to a time when things would work out fine
You know, we were satisfied
What was yours was yours and what was mine was mine
And I will kiss you softly if you want me to
Just to remind you that I still love you
Cause you know I’m gonna miss ya
And I’m tryin’ to convince myself
That leaving here’s the right thing to do

Goodbye baby
I just can’t seem to bring those words to mind
Thoughts of leavin’,
But maybe someday we will both find
That it was somehow worth it all in the end
But I get this feelin’ of doubt every now and then
Cause you know I’m gonna miss ya
But maybe someday we’ll both see
That leaving here’s the right thing to do
