I'm Leaving

As we passed in the hall

She said, "We need to talk

I can't go on like this another day"

I froze in my tracks

And a chill ran up my back

'Cause I knew what she was gonna say

She said, "There's someone else

And I've kept it to myself

But I can't keep these feelings locked inside

I need to tell you this

It's one of your old friends

One you haven't talked to in a while"

She said, "I'm leaving

And there's nothing you can do"

I said, "I had a feeling you found somebody new

And I'll bet I can guess his name

But it's so hard to believe"

'Cause she said, "You're not even close

It's someone you don't know

I'm leaving you for me"

I just stood there, at a loss for words

Tryin' to catch my breath

'Cause I knew that it was over when

She said, "I'm leaving

And there's nothing you can do"

I said, "I had a feeling that you found somebody new

And I'll bet I can guess his name

But it's so hard to believe"

Oh, she said, "You're not even close

It's someone you don't know

I'm leaving you for me"

She said, "You're not even close

It's someone you don't know

I'm leaving you for me"
