Compassionate Man Lyrics

Compassionate Man lyrics

(John Farrar/Chris Christian) 

Love you were kind and much older
Foolish but wiser than me
Am I becoming an anchor
Holding you back from the sea

Restlessly you stand there, crying silently
It must be so hard being easy on me

Compassionate man, so gentle 
Trying hard to shelter me 
Compassionate man, so kind 
But the bottom line will be what it will be 
You`re leaving me, leaving me

Love, my whole life was a desert
Then gently your love fell like rain 
We lived for awhile in a garden 
But now I`m a desert again

Come right out and say it
Tell me honestly
It must be so hard being easy on me

Compassionate man, so gentle 
Trying hard to shelter me 
Compassionate man, so kind 
But the bottom line will be what it will be 
You`re leaving me, leaving me
You`re leaving me 
You`re leaving me 
You`re leaving me
