If You Left Me

If you left me I’d be sad

I’d also be a little mad

I probably drink a lot more beer

Eat McDonald’s for a year

If you left me I’d be cold

Tell myself I’m not too old

Do some push ups every day

“Looking good,” my friends would say

Maybe I’d meet somebody

Anybody

Stay with them for a night or two

I’m sure you’d meet somebody

Anybody

Would love you like I do

If you left me I’d be poor

The kids won’t know me anymore

Not sure how I’d pay the rent

Half my life’s already spent

If you left me I’d be free

Become somebody who’s not me

Someone you wouldn’t even know

Maybe then you wouldn’t go

Maybe I’ll think of something

Change the one thing

That’s all that I have to do

Then we’d be left something

Instead of nothing

I’d like that, wouldn’t you

If you left me I’d be dead

Maybe I should leave instead

Maybe it’s just another fight

Why don’t we kiss and say and goodnight
