Love you were kind and much older, foolish but wiser than me Am I becoming an anchor, holding you back from the sea Restlessly you stand there, crying silently It must be so hard being easy on me Chorus: Compassionate man, so gentle, trying hard to shelter me Compassionate man, so kind, but the bottom line will be what it will be You're leaving me, leaving me Love, my whole life was a desert, then gently your love fell like rain We lived for awhile in a garden, but now I'm a desert again Come right out and say it, tell me honestly It must be so hard being easy on me Chorus You're leaving me (repeats out)
