Knowing When to Leave Songtext
von Helen Reddy

Go while the going is good
Knowing when to leave
May be the smartest thing
That anyone can learn
Go!

I′m afraid my heart isn't very smart
So, I keep hoping, day after day
As I wait for the man I meet
Night after night
As I wait for the love that can be

I′m sure that no one can tell
When a wishes and hopes will meet
Somehow, I feel there is happiness
Still waiting there for me


Fly, while you still have your wings
Knowing when to leave
Will never let you reach the point of no return
Fly!

Foolish as it seems, I still have my dreams
When someone walks in your life
You just better be sure he's right
'Cause if he′s wrong
There are heartaches and tears you must face

Keep both your eyes on the door
And never let it get out of sight
Just be prepared when the time has come
And you will walk away

Sail when the wind starts to blow
But like a fool
I don′t know when to leave
When to leave
When to leave
