Lyrics
Oh-oh-oh
In the morning when she wakes
Light of dawn come touch her face
Sunshine keep her warm and safe
Wind come blow her tears away
Tell her love has felt the need to leave her
Tell her love has felt the need to free her
I could never be what she wants of me, yeah-yeah
Diamond rings and wedding plans
Children laughing and holding hands
She deserves that kind of man
But my life is like a ship in sand, yeah
Tell her love has felt the need to leave her
Tell her love has felt the need to free her
I could never be what she wants of me (never)
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I could never be what she wants of me
Yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
I could never be what she wants of me
Tell her love has felt the need to leave her (won't you tell her?)
Tell her love has felt the need to free her (her)
Huh-huh-huh (won't you tell her?) Huh-huh
I could never be what she wants of me, yeah
I could never be what she wants of me (won't you tell her?), hey
I'll just pass her by, I don't want to make her cry (won't you tell her?) hey
(Hope she finds a happy home, I think it's best that I move on, hey (hey)
I could never be what she wants of me, hey
