Leaving Love That's Good

Tonight I'm scared to face it
I smile pretending nothing's wrong
But I'm lyin'
The room's so crazy quiet
I wish we weren't alone

I ask you for a light dear
And soon our smoke rings
Fill the room
Your staring, a shadow looking through me
I'll have to say it soon

My smile disappears
He sees the real me
I say I must go somewhere
Got to go there free
Leavin' you ain't easy, baby
At least it ain't a lie
I can't live as what I'm not
This is my goodbye!

Oh leavin' a love that's good
Oh leavin' to be free
Oh leavin' a love that's good
Well I'm leavin' a love that's good
Cause I bet this love that's good
Isn't good for me

I've got to make my move now
You take my hand and pull me down
Oh heartache
My heart aches with a passion
But I know I must be strong

And you say, "Just stay the night, dear"
But you know one night
Will lead to two
You kiss me
With a lovers clouded vision
And I've got to say it soon

Now I'm cool, in control
Can't shake me to my knees
I'm headin' out your door my love
Don't make it harder, please
Don't punish me with those sad eyes
I need space for me
This moment's been long overdue
Sorry
But it's true

Oh leavin' a love that's good
Oh leavin' to be free
Oh leavin' a love that's good
But I'm leavin' a love that's good
Cause I bet this love that's good
Isn't good for me

The air is chilling
As I hear you lock your door
The hollow sound of empty endings
Saying, nevermore
I hope I've done the right thing
How can I ever know
You're wise to follow love they say
A fool to let it go!

Oh leavin' a love that's good
Oh leavin' to be free
Oh leavin' a love that's good
Well I'm leavin' a love that's good
Cause I bet this love that's good
Isn't good for me

Oh leavin a love that's good
Oh leavin to be free
Oh leavin a love that's good
Well I'm leavin' a love that's good
Cause I bet this love that's good
Isn't good for me
