if you're gonna' go,
then go.
don't stay back here
hauntin' me so.

if you're gonna' leave,
then leave.
please, baby, quit hauntin' me.
just let me be.

don't know why
you wanta' stay.
you're not here anyway.

don't stay there
in my mind.
remindin' me
where i can't be.
that ain't kind.

just let me be.
can't ya' see
you're hauntin' me.
hangin' 'round here
in my memory.

if you're gonna' go,
then go.
quit hauntin' my memory so.

hard to get rid of those images that are like a tape playing over and over again in the mind...takes a lot of work ....;-)

'..you're not here anyway..'at least you understand. Tough one to write, and you did it so well.
