Leaving Time

from Tele​-​Pickin' Bandit by Dusty Woods

/

about

(4:20): You won't see me any more / if I can just get through that door... A song about loving someone and having to leave anyway. Extended Canadiana country-rock ballad, slow and sad with a bit of a rock feel in the guitars and arrangement.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Never did too much talkin', words just got in the way,
Now comes the time for walkin', I guess there's nothin' more to say,
You won't see me anymore, if I can just get through the door,
There's no reason and no rhyme,
But it's leavin' time,
It's leavin' time.

Verse 2:
I feel the cold wind blowin', another year has come and gone,
And it's not easier for knowin' leaving time is coming on,
We can't say we didn't try, but I won't stay to watch love die,
I never meant to be unkind,
But it's leavin' time,
Oh, it's leavin' time.

Verse 3:
Please don't look at me that way,
We both know that I can't stay,
I know you'll never leave my mind,
But it's leavin' time,
Yes, it's leavin' time.
We never did too much talkin', words just got in the way,
Now comes the time for walkin', I guess there's nothin' more to say...
Guess there's nothing more...Leavin' time
Oh, it's leavin' time

about

Dusty Woods Clementsvale, Nova Scotia

Born in BC, Canada in 1947, Dusty started performing in bands in his early teens. He was always honing his craft, learning stagecraft from more experienced performers.

Dusty passed away in Nova Scotia in 2017. The man is gone, but his music lives on. Dusty's online presence is managed by Mrs. Dusty (Jeri-Lynn Woods). My goal is to share the magic and keep the Dusty Woods legacy alive.
