Oh well, it's been a long time
If you're gonna leave me
And it turns out there was nothing left to fix
If you're gonna leave me
If you're gonna leave me
Let me down easy
Just say it's over
You couldn't stand to be with me
Tell me you're sorry
I am messing up and I can't seem to stop
Let me down easy
But I never thought I'd see us come to this
Say it's you and not me, that's all that I want
If you're gonna leave me
Since you waited for my key to turn the lock
And it seems like a thousand years
And that everybody's got something to say
The thoughts you had, we never shared
I never thought that you would care
Say it's you and not me, that's all that I want
Tell me you're sorry
I won't go and you won't stay
I never thought that you would care
Just the two of us and all of our mistakes
I checked out other spots to go
Say it's you and not me, that's all that I want
I want an answer
I never wanted to believe
I came and to save us
Let me down easy, don't string me along
I'm not what you think 'cause neither one of us
If you're gonna leave me
If you think it's over
You couldn't stand to be with me
I can't be something that I'm not
Let me down easy, don't string me along
Tell me you're sorry
Shouldn't have to take the blame
What are we doing all this for?
No turning back now
I have spent the best of all my years with you
It's all around me
If you're gonna leave me
Tell it to me straight 'cause I deserve the truth
Well, it's just what it comes down to
I've been no angel
And when you left an open door
Let me down easy, don't string me along
That's a man, unless my heart will be so damned
Well, what is said and done
No use trying to make something where there's not
I'm tracing back with you
Let me down easy
I checked out other spots to go
