You Can Tell Him
If you want to see the man who broke my heart
You can tell him by the eyes that pierce the dark
You can tell him by the laugh that fills the room
You can tell him by the arms that feel like home
Tried to tell him he's the only one I want
Tried to tell him he's the sun that brings the dawn
When I'm dreaming
And now he's telling me he's leaving
If you want to see the girl who took my place
You can tell her by the smile that's on her face
You can tell her by the way they're dancing slow
That he loves her and that she knows
I could tell her that it probably won't last
Be as jealous of her future as my past
But there's no healing
When he's telling me he's leaving
He's leaving
He's leaving
He's leaving
He's leaving me with no answers
Leaving me with no doubt
Let me feel a love I can't ever live without
And he's leaving me with no shelter
Leaving me with no air
Every morning, I'm surprised that I'm still breathing
So if you want to know the reason I went home
I could tell you that I'm trying to move on
I could tell you that I need a change of scenery
But really
I don't want to see the man who broke my heart
I don't want to see those eyes that pierce the dark
I turn a corner and he's there again and baby, I'm still reeling
I don't want to see the new girl in his life
I don't want to see the friends who picked their sides
I don't want to come face to face with love that I'm still feeling
So if you see the man I love despite all reason
You can tell him that I'm leaving
I'm leaving
You can tell him by the eyes that pierce the dark
You can tell him by the laugh that fills the room
You can tell him by the arms that feel like home
Tried to tell him he's the only one I want
Tried to tell him he's the sun that brings the dawn
When I'm dreaming
And now he's telling me he's leaving
If you want to see the girl who took my place
You can tell her by the smile that's on her face
You can tell her by the way they're dancing slow
That he loves her and that she knows
I could tell her that it probably won't last
Be as jealous of her future as my past
But there's no healing
When he's telling me he's leaving
He's leaving
He's leaving
He's leaving
He's leaving me with no answers
Leaving me with no doubt
Let me feel a love I can't ever live without
And he's leaving me with no shelter
Leaving me with no air
Every morning, I'm surprised that I'm still breathing
So if you want to know the reason I went home
I could tell you that I'm trying to move on
I could tell you that I need a change of scenery
But really
I don't want to see the man who broke my heart
I don't want to see those eyes that pierce the dark
I turn a corner and he's there again and baby, I'm still reeling
I don't want to see the new girl in his life
I don't want to see the friends who picked their sides
I don't want to come face to face with love that I'm still feeling
So if you see the man I love despite all reason
You can tell him that I'm leaving
I'm leaving
