I am leaving when the cherry blossoms bloom
and now that time is coming much too soon
and when I look in the grayness of your eyes
I see our nights falling through your sky
The purple crocus in the garden finds, its way
and yet I'm lost in the blueness of each day
it holds my heart hostage and drags me down
when I'm just trying to get up and leave this town
I'm gonna drive that pass
gonna drive so fast
So I won't
when you don't make a fool out of me
Its in the silence at the sunrise of the day
when the warmth of night in your eyes fades
if you could just lie next to me and not turn, away
but I'll stave my tongue and you will have your way
I'm gonna drive that pass
gonna drive so fast
So I won't see
when you don't watch as I leave
But every time we leave the harbor of your room
you change, you sigh you're as cold as the moon
you've become deaf to the sweetness of my voice
just remember that this was your choice
I'm gonna drive that pass
gonna drive so fast
So I won't see
when you make a fool out of me
