So Anyway Lyrics & Chords By Next To Normal Cast & Alice Ripley

So anyway, I'm leaving.
I thought you'd like to know.
You're faithful, come what may,
But clearly I can't stay—
We'd both go mad that way.
So here I go.
And anyway, I'm leaving—
I guess that you can see.
I'll try this on my own,
A life I've never know—
I'll face the dread alone,
But I'll be free.
With you always beside me
To catch me when I fall,
I'd never get to know the feel
Of solid ground at all.
With you always believing
That we can still come through,
It makes me feel the fool
To know that it's not true.
What doctors called dysfunction
We tried to call romance.
And true, it's quite a trick
To tell the dancers from the dance.
But rather than let chance take me,
I'll take a chance...
I'll take a chance on leaving.
It's that, or stay and die.
I loved you once, and though,
You love me still, I know
It's time for me to fly...
I loved you once, and though,
I love you still, I know
It's time for me to go...
And so goodbye.
