The yelling and cussing

Was different this time

That's when I started to pack

There's a place where two people

Can't change anymore

And that's right about where we're at



Grabbed my favorite CDand my six pack of beer

A duffle bag full of my clothes

Didn't come here with much

Even leaving with less

Guess that's what ya get when ya go



Back when we met

I thought she was so me

And she told me I was so her

Playing that game of pleasing each other

It was so easy at first



Why when and where everything changed

At this point who cares and who knows

Last thing I want is to carry this hate

But you can't make it stay when you go



The way that it is

Ain't the way that it was

We've come to the fork in the road

No it ain't about pride

Or who's wrong or who's right

There just comes a time when you know

You'll be better off when ya go



I got caught in a moment way too surreal

Playing that game of pleasing each other

It was so easy at first



Why when and where everything changed

At this point who cares and who knows

Last thing I want is to carry this hate

But you can't make it stay when you go



The way that it is

Ain't the way that it was

We've come to the fork in the road

No it ain't about pride

Or who's wrong or who's right

There just comes a time when you know

You'll be better off when ya go



I got caught in a moment way too surreal

I wasn't trying to stall

Just taking my steps one at a time

Taking in all the pictures on the wall



I walked in the kitchen I said I better leave

Kinda hoping she might say din't

But she took a deep drag off that Marlboro light

And said shut the door behind ya when ya go



Ya she just took a deep drag off that Marlboro light

And said shut the door behind ya when ya go
