Separate Ways

Stuart McNair

Chorus:
babe, do you love me
or do you want to go your separate way?
babe, do you love me
or do you want to go your separate way?

I'm not a man who walks around
carrying his heart upon his sleeve
but give me a little warning if you leave
I'll pick my feet up off the ground
you'll never see me wallow or grieve
just give me a little warning if you leave

chorus

the day I bought this piece of land
that was the day we were freed
happiness is freedom from need
I'll break the earth between my hands
everything must grow from a seed
happiness is freedom from need

chorus

we're flowing like a mountain stream
but there's bound to be rocks along the way
but you've only got to live one day
I see the future in my dreams
I hear it in the trees as they sway
but you've only got to live one day
