If It Doesn't Come Naturally, Leave It (Live 1981) - Al Stewart[00:00:00]

Written by：Al Stewart/Peter White[00:00:00]

Nothing that's forced can ever be right[00:00:13]

If it doesn't come naturally leave it[00:00:15]

That's what she said as she turned out the light[00:00:19]

And we bent our backs as slaves of the night[00:00:22]

She lowered her guard and showed me the scars[00:00:25]

She got from trying to fight[00:00:28]

Saying oh you'd better believe it[00:00:31]

Well I'm up to my neck in the crumbling wreckage[00:00:41]

Of all that I wanted from life[00:00:44]

When I looked for respect all I got was neglect[00:00:48]

Though I swallowed the line as a sign of the times[00:00:51]

But dealing a jack from the back of the pack[00:00:54]

They said you lose again[00:00:57]

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

Well don't get me wrong now I tried to get on[00:01:07]

With the jokers that got in my way[00:01:10]

I put on a smile[00:01:13]

And I tried all the while to be straight[00:01:15]

But they just wanted more all the time[00:01:20]

And I'm sure[00:01:22]

You know what I mean when I say[00:01:23]

I'm sick of the touch[00:01:26]

And there's only so much you can take[00:01:28]

Nothing that's real is ever for free[00:01:34]

You just have to pay for it sometime[00:01:37]

She said it before she said it to me[00:01:40]

I suppose she believed there was nothing to see[00:01:43]

But the same old four imaginary walls[00:01:46]

She built for living inside[00:01:49]

Oh you just can't mean it[00:01:53]

Well there was never a doubt[00:02:32]

That she had to get out[00:02:33]

She was just looking around for a way[00:02:35]

In the pit of the night[00:02:39]

There was nowhere to hide any more[00:02:40]

Out on a limb[00:02:46]

She was reaching for things[00:02:46]

That she wanted but just couldn't say[00:02:48]

She had to be sure that[00:02:52]

She wouldn't get caught like before[00:02:53]

Nothing that's forced can ever be right[00:02:59]

If it doesn't come naturally leave it[00:03:01]

That's what she said as she turned out the light[00:03:05]

And she may have been wrong[00:03:08]

And she may have been right[00:03:10]

I woke with the frost[00:03:12]

And noticed she'd lost[00:03:13]

The veil that covered her eyes[00:03:15]

Oh I said you can leave it[00:03:18]

You can leave it[00:03:24]
