G               C
you stand now, holding yourself
   Am                    C             D
a little of the moon is coming in the room.
G                C
you stand very still
                     D            Em
like you were in the arms of everyone
          D
you ever wanted.
C Am                G
i was watching you well

I won't stop you, I won't speak
The water on your cheek is the only that's moving
I'm ashamed that I'm ashamed of you
Standing in my room, lest more water overtake you
And I was watching you, watching you well

Chorus:
C    D                  Em    D
why won't you leave me quicker
C                    Am
why won't you leave me?

I'm ashamed that I'm ashamed of you
Standing in my room, lest more water overtake you
I won't stop you
And I won't speak

Chorus:
Why won't you leave me quicker?
Why won't you leave me?
