Lyrics

It was so easy for you to say goodbye
I know you now realize that you made a mistake
But you took my heart
At least let me keep some pride for myself
'Cause, even now, I would consider taking you back
But darling, it's the way you left
You just walked away without a word to say
It was easy
You just packed your clothes
Didn't let me know that you were leaving
Oh, you got your hat, coat thrown across your back
And just walked right on out the door
Oh, but now you began to realize
That I'm not yours anymore
Now you find yourself
Trying to trace your track
Hey, hey, hey, baby (ooh, Lord)
It was easy leaving me, baby
So hard coming back
You played around
With all the girls in town like it was nothing to it
All the time, I played dumb and blind
Oh, darling, you can bet I knew it (yes, I did, now)
You broke my heart, tore it all apart
And just laughed and went on your way
Oh, but little did you realize, huh
You'd want me back someday
Now you find yourself trying to trace your track
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
It was easy leaving me, baby, so hard coming back
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Lord
It was so easy leaving me, baby
I can't let you come back now, now
No, no, no, no, baby, I'm sorry, baby
I mean, I just can't do it to myself, I've seen it
