If It Doesn't Come Naturally Leave It - Al Stewart[00:00:00]

Nothing that's forced can never be right[00:00:14]

If it doesn't come naturally leave it[00:00:16]

That's what she said as she turned out the light[00:00:20]

And we bent our backs as slaves of the night[00:00:23]

She lowered her guard showed me the scar[00:00:27]

She got from trying to fight[00:00:30]

Saying oh you'd better believe it[00:00:33]

Well I'm up to my neck in crumbling wreckage[00:00:44]

Of all that I wanted from life[00:00:47]

When I looked for respect all I got was neglect[00:00:50]

Though I swallowed the line as a sign of the times[00:00:54]

But dealing a Jack from the back of the pack[00:00:57]

They said[00:01:01]

You'll lose again[00:01:02]

Oh I said who needs it[00:01:05]

Well don't get me wrong now I tried to get on[00:01:11]

With the jokers who got in my way[00:01:14]

And I put on a smile[00:01:18]

And I tried all the while to be straight[00:01:20]

But they just wanted more all the time and I'm sure[00:01:25]

That you know what I mean when I say[00:01:28]

That I'm sick of the touch[00:01:32]

And there's only so much you can take[00:01:34]

Well nothing that's real is ever for free[00:01:39]

And you just have to pay for it sometime[00:01:42]

She said it before she said it to me[00:01:46]

I suppose she believed there was nothing to see[00:01:49]

But the same old four imaginary walls[00:01:52]

She built for living inside[00:01:56]

I said oh you just can't mean it[00:01:59]

Well there was never a doubt that she had to get out[00:02:40]

She was just looking around for a way[00:02:44]

In the pit of the night[00:02:48]

There was nowhere to hide any more[00:02:49]

She was out on a limb[00:02:54]

She was reaching for things[00:02:56]

That she wanted but just couldn't say[00:02:58]

And she had to be sure[00:03:02]

That she wouldn't get caught like before[00:03:03]

Well nothing that's forced can never be right[00:03:09]

If it doesn't come naturally leave it[00:03:12]

That's what she said as she turned out the light[00:03:16]

And she may have been wrong[00:03:19]

And she may have been right[00:03:21]

But I woke with the frost[00:03:22]

And noticed she'd lost the veil that covered her eyes[00:03:24]

I said oh you can leave it[00:03:29]
