So many times I've told you I was leavin'

And so many times, how I tried.

But sayin' you're leavin's so much easier

Than leavin' and sayin' goodbye



Cause every time I start to go I wouldn't get ten feet

Till I'd come runnin' back like a runaway child who's afraid to cross the street.

My mind might tell my lips to say it's over.

But my heart would only say it's a lie.

Cause sayin' you're leavin's so much easier

Than leavin' and sayin' goodbye.
