this is how a woman leaves

Оригінал

Close your eyes and listen to me closely

Like you used to know me, now you don't

Smile at me like you understand me

You don't understand me, you don't

I won't leave the room for you to wonder what I meant when I said it

'Cause I meant it when I said it

Look me in the eyes now, I'm gonna say goodbye now

Don't pretend that you're gonna forget it

This is how a woman leaves

If this is how it's gonna be now

I'll go where you can't follow me

And you can't call, and you can't say anything

This is how a woman leaves

I can run faster than you can

I can hold the whole truth better than any man

I can stand tall, I can free-fall

I can break through with my back up against the wall

I don't have to prove to you that I was so good to you

Maybe that's why this is hard for you

There's nothin' here left to do, you don't have to make a move

Nothin' here to save, nothin' left to lose

This is how a woman leaves

If this is how it's gonna be now

I'll go where you can't follow me

And you can't call, and you can't say anything

This is where it's gonna end

Not gonna try to be your friend

All I want is you to get

Out of my heart, out of my head

This is how a woman leaves

Even though it's killin' me

I'll make it look so easy

That even I believe me (oh)

Oh, oh

Go ahead and look me in the eye

Oh, oh

Go ahead, pretend that you're surprised

Oh, oh (oh)

This is how a woman leaves

If this is how it's gonna be now

I'll go where you can't follow me

And you can't call, and you can't say anything

You have the nerve to ask why I'm not cryin'

I did all my cryin' lyin' next to you
