- Leaving LyricsWatching the clock on the wall
Been a while since you called
I can't help but wait
It's late and I can't get no sleep
Somethings different this time
It just doesn't feel right
Have we broken in two?
Am I really gonna lose you tonight?
You come walking in
Tears in your eyes
Pretending like it's alright
Chorus:
But I know youre leaving
I know that smile
I can tell you've been crying
Youre gonna say goodbye
I wish I could stop you
But you've made up your mind
I beg you don't go
But I already know youre leaving
Where does the time go?
Between goodbye and hello
How did we come to this is there something we missed
Along the way
With your bags at the door
I wanna pull you in close
And hold you once more even though
Chorus
Here come the sleepless nights
Here come the tears Im gonna cry
Here comes the last goodbye leaving us behind
Oh this can't be right
Chorus
Been a while since you called
I can't help but wait
It's late and I can't get no sleep
Somethings different this time
It just doesn't feel right
Have we broken in two?
Am I really gonna lose you tonight?
You come walking in
Tears in your eyes
Pretending like it's alright
Chorus:
But I know youre leaving
I know that smile
I can tell you've been crying
Youre gonna say goodbye
I wish I could stop you
But you've made up your mind
But I already know youre leaving
Where does the time go?
Between goodbye and hello
How did we come to this is there something we missed
Along the way
With your bags at the door
I wanna pull you in close
And hold you once more even though
Chorus
Here come the sleepless nights
Here come the tears Im gonna cry
Here comes the last goodbye leaving us behind
Oh this can't be right
Chorus

When we take a closer look to the meaning, Westlife's 'Leaving' vividly illustrates the agony and hopelessness accompanying an impending separation, as the performer contends with the situation of parting with someone dear and the painful consequence that invariably comes after.

Along with this, the song simultaneously highlights the process of getting ready for the loss, going through the stages of denial and hope, accepting the loss, mulling over the relationship and experiencing the emotional turmoil.
