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