Knowing when to Leave

Go while the going is good
Knowing when to leave could be the smartest thing that anyone can learn
Go
I'm afraid my heart isn't very smart

Fly while your still have your wings
Knowing when to leave will never let you reach the point of no return
Fly
Foolish as it seems, I still have my dreams

So I keep hoping, day after day, as I wait for the man
I need night after night as I wish for a love that can be
Though I'm sure that no one can tell when a wish is a hope
Somehow I feel there is happiness just waiting there for me
When someone walks in your life, you'd just better be sure he's right
'Cause if he's wrong there's are heartaches and tears you must face
Keep both of your eyes on the door and never let it get out of sight
Just be prepared when the time comes for you to run away
Sail when the wind starts to blow
But like a fool I don't know when to leave

Somehow I feel there is happiness just waiting there for me
Just be prepared when the time comes for you to run away to me
