this is how a woman leaves

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 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
