Leave You Behind

It wasn't long ago
That he left me for another
I said to myself 
That I'd never even bother again
So I went to the clubs
And I hung around bars
Drank a little rye, but I didn't get high
I didn't have fun, serving up a breakfast for one

I'm gonna have to leave you
I said to myself
I promised to have a good time
I'm gonna have to leave you
Leave you behind
You're gonna have to see that
It's wasting my time
You give me nothing to lose
I'm gonna have to leave you
Leave you behind

I'm not expecting much
Even losers have their uses
You lost the right to touch
When you left me with excuses again
Wiped my feet on your mat
Put myself in your bed
I had to ask why I didn't get high
Landing myself with a complicated drifter like you

I'm gonna have to leave you
I said to myself
I promised to have a good time
I'm gonna have to leave you
Leave you behind
You're gonna have to see that
It's wasting my time
You give me nothing to lose
I'm gonna have to leave you
Leave you behind

All my life everytime I give it up for a man
I get hurt in the end always
And from now
So I live
I will take
You will give

I'm gonna have to leave you
I said to myself
I promised to have a good time
I'm gonna have to leave you
Leave you behind
You're gonna have to see that
It's wasting my time
You give me nothing to lose
I'm gonna have to leave you
Leave you behind
Leave you behind
Leave you behind
