WAY TO GO

our years together weren't all heaven but neither were they hell
better than a life alone, far as i could tell
so it caught me off guard when you said you were leaving
if you walk out that door, you'll leave me nothing to believe in

   staring out the window, wondering what it's all about
   dark clouds moving in while you are moving out
   if you're hanging 'round to see if i'm going to fall apart
   way to go, good job, you're off to a damn good start

something that once passed for love turned in to passing time
now past the point of no return, no reason, no rhyme
it cracked, it crumbled, it resisted repair
it tettered, it tumbled, for the lack of a little care

   staring out the window, wondering what it's all about
   dark clouds moving in while you are moving out
   if you're hanging 'round to see if i'm going to fall apart
   way to go, good job, you're off to a damn good start

i held out hope that we could find a way to make things better
i'm left holding my breath and trying to hold myself together

   staring out the window, wondering what it's all about
   dark clouds moving in while you are moving out
   if you're hanging 'round to see if i'm going to fall apart
   way to go, good job, you're off to a damn good start
