Came Here to Leave
You might as well keep that car runnin'
You might as well tell her you're on your way
While you're at it you can start thinking of something
You're gonna say to me
Maybe that you've got an early morning
And you probably shouldn't be out all that late
Cause I can already hear it coming
You can't stay with me
So why you gotta look at me like that
Why you gotta make me want you back
When you know what you're doing
And you do it just because
You're missing what it isn't and it isn't what it was
Why you gotta put your hand on mine
When you know that it's just one more one last time
Yeah, why you gotta act like I'm where you wanna be
When you only came here to leave
How'd you get so good at gettin' gone
Like a heart has a switch you can flip off when you're done
And how the hell do you walk in
Just to walk back out again
Baby, if you know you're moving on
Then why you gotta look at me like that
Why you gotta make me want you back
When you know what you're doing and you do it just because
You're missing what it isn't and it isn't what it was
Why you gotta put your hand on mine
When you know that it's just one more one last time
Yeah, why you gotta act like I'm where you wanna be
When you only came here to leave
Yeah, you're holding me
And you're over me
Why are you holding it over me
Why you gotta look at me like that
Why you gotta make me want you back
Why you gotta look at me like that
Why you gotta make me want you back
When you know what you're doing
And you do it just because
You're missing what it isn't and it isn't what it was
Why you gotta put your hand on mine
When you know that it's just one more one last time
Yeah, why you gotta act like I'm where you wanna be
Oh, why you gotta act like I'm where you wanna be
When you only came here to leave
Yeah, I know you came here to leave
You might as well keep that car runnin'
You might as well tell her you're on your way
While you're at it you can start thinking of something
You're gonna say to me
Maybe that you've got an early morning
And you probably shouldn't be out all that late
Cause I can already hear it coming
You can't stay with me
So why you gotta look at me like that
Why you gotta make me want you back
When you know what you're doing
And you do it just because
You're missing what it isn't and it isn't what it was
Why you gotta put your hand on mine
When you know that it's just one more one last time
Yeah, why you gotta act like I'm where you wanna be
When you only came here to leave
How'd you get so good at gettin' gone

Yeah, why you gotta act like I'm where you wanna be
Oh, why you gotta act like I'm where you wanna be
When you only came here to leave
Yeah, I know you came here to leave
You might as well keep that car runnin'
