Leavin' and Sayin' Goodbye

Faron Young (February 25, 1932 – December 10, 1996) was an American country music singer and songwriter from the early 1950s into the mid-1980s and one of its most successful and colorful stars. Hits including "If You Ain't Lovin' (You Ain't Livin')" and "Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young" marked him as a honky-tonk singer in sound and personal style; and his chart-topping singles "Hello Walls" and "It's Four in the Morning" showed his versatility as a vocalist. Known as the Hillbilly Heartthrob, and following a movie role, the Young Sheriff, Young's singles reliably charted for more than 30 years. He committed suicide in 1996. Young is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame. more »

So many times I've told I was leavin' and oh so many times how I have tried
But sayin' your leavin's so much easier than leavin' and sayin' goodbye
Every time I'd start to go I wouldn't get ten feet

I'd go runnin' back like a runaway child that's afraid to cross the street
And my mind might tell my lips to say it's over my heart would only say it's a lie
And sayin' your leavin's so much easier than leavin' and sayin' goodbye

Yeah every time I'd start to go...
Leavin' and sayin' goodbye
