Well, Ive been on the wrong side Of the front door too often Watched you slam it in my face Well I may learn the hard way I'm not a soft one Tonight I'm standin in your place
'Cause you taught me a lot about leavin Wont even have to try So heres your lesson in heartache and grievin And a chance for you to cry 'Cause its time you learned about good-bye
Ive stood behind you And Ive laid beside you But I wont do that anymore 'Cause I'm tired of bein Just here when you want me Tonight I'm walkin out that door
'Cause you taught me a lot about leavin Wont even have to try So heres your lesson in heartache and grievin And a chance for you to cry 'Cause its time you learned about good-bye
