You were planning to stay in, you had it carefully planned
|
Your coat was hanging in the hall, your hat was in your hand
|
You walked over to your woman, your pale distracted love
|
Who was trying to put the wrong hand into the wrong glove
|
|
Are you leaving, dear? Are you leaving, dear?
|
Are you leaving, dear? Are you leaving, dear?
|
|
So you start reading all her books, all her magazines
|
Just to get a better understanding
|
Your brain feels like it's dead
|
Your eyes are hanging out your head
|
You were hoping for something less demanding
|
Well what you see staring out at you from a photo book
|
A man with an eyepatch and a bent, bloody hook
|
You wished to God that you never went and took a look
|
Cause it's in that moment that you know that
|
|
she's leaving you
|
Yeah she's leaving you
|
|
Well now she's taking you to bed
|
Her legs wrapped round your head
|
You're losing her to some crazy kind of motion
|
You keep coming up for air
|
You look around and stare
|
Find you're swimming into completely different oceans
|
You're wondering if she's thinking about some other man
|
She says, "C'mon, baby, you know you are my loverman"
|
You're going nuts you don't know exactly what to say
|
She says, "Don't worry, baby, this is just my little way
|
|
of leaving you"
|
Oh, man, she's leaving you
|
|
Guitar solo!
|
|
She keeps saying, "Hey, don't hate me"
|
She keeps saying, "Hate is just some kind of failure of the imagination"
|
She keeps saying things like this
|
Now she's giving you a kiss
|
Now she's got you dragging her to the station
|
The sun just slipped out of the sky, this is a black letter day
|
Her train is moving down the platform, and is drawn away
|
You're crying buckets, she gives her glove a wave
|
She says "Oh c'mon, baby, that's no way to behave
|
|
when I'm leaving you"
|
Oh yeah, she's leaving you
|
Oh yeah, she's leaving you
|
Yeah, she's leaving you
|
She's leaving you
|
Yeah, she's leaving you
|
Yeah, she's leaving you
|
Yeah, she's leaving you
|
