Carole King — Growing Away from Me lyrics

Lyrics

You’ve been my life to me My very soul and my heart
But lately something’s come over you
And it’s tearing me apart
Darlin', I feel you growing away from me More and more each day
Whatever you want me to be, I’ll be If it keeps you from growing away from me Even though you say you love me The feeling’s no longer there
I know there’s somebody else
And it’s more than I can bear
Darlin', I feel you growing away from me More and more each day
Whatever you want me to be, I’ll be If it keeps you from growing away from me Believe me, I would let you go if I could
But I don’t know if it’s worse being lonely
Than having you here in body only
It’s no use pretending
When the love you used to feel is gone
Yet even though I’m losing you
I can’t help trying to hold on Darlin', I feel you growing away from me More and more and more each day
Whatever you want me to be, I’ll be If it keeps you from growing away from me I feel you growing away from me
