So many times I told you I was leaving
And oh so many times how I tried
But saying you're leaving is so much easier than leaving and saying goodbye
Every time I'd start to go, I wouldn't get ten feet
I'd come running back like a runaway child that's afraid to cross the street
And my mind might tell my lips to say it's over
But my heart would only say it's a lie
Saying you're leaving is so much easier
Than leavin' and sayin' goodbye

And my mind might tell my lips to say it's over
But my heart would only say it's a lie
Saying you're leaving is so much easier
