This Is How a Woman Leaves Songtext
Close your eyes and listen to me closely
Like you used to know me, now you don′t
Smile at me like you understand me
You don't understand me, you don′t
I won't leave the room for you to wonder what I meant when I said it
'Cause I meant it when I said it
Look me in the eyes now, I′m gonna say goodbye now
Don′t pretend that you're gonna forget it
This is how a woman leaves
If this is how it′s gonna be now
I'll go where you can′t follow me
And you can't call, and you can′t say anything
This is how a woman leaves
I can run faster than you can
I can hold the whole truth better than any man
I can stand tall, I can free-fall
I can break through with my back up against the wall
I don't have to prove to you that I was so good to you
Maybe that's why this is hard for you
There′s nothin′ here left to do, you don't have to make a move
Nothin′ here to save, nothin' left to lose
This is how a woman leaves
If this is how it′s gonna be now
I'll go where you can′t follow me
And you can't call, and you can't say anything
This is where it′s gonna end
Not gonna try to be your friend
All I want is you to get
Out of my heart, out of my head
This is how a woman leaves
Even though it′s killin' me
I′ll make it look so easy
That even I believe me (oh)
Oh, oh
Go ahead and look me in the eye
Oh, oh
Go ahead, pretend that you're surprised
Oh, oh (oh)
This is how a woman leaves
If this is how it′s gonna be now
I'll go where you can′t follow me
And you can't call, and you can't say anything
You have the nerve to ask why I′m not cryin′
I did all my cryin' lyin′ next to you
Like you used to know me, now you don′t
Smile at me like you understand me
You don't understand me, you don′t
I won't leave the room for you to wonder what I meant when I said it
'Cause I meant it when I said it
Look me in the eyes now, I′m gonna say goodbye now
Don′t pretend that you're gonna forget it
This is how a woman leaves
If this is how it′s gonna be now
I'll go where you can′t follow me
And you can't call, and you can′t say anything
This is how a woman leaves
I can run faster than you can
I can hold the whole truth better than any man
I can stand tall, I can free-fall
I can break through with my back up against the wall
I don't have to prove to you that I was so good to you
Maybe that's why this is hard for you
There′s nothin′ here left to do, you don't have to make a move
Nothin′ here to save, nothin' left to lose
This is how a woman leaves
If this is how it′s gonna be now
I'll go where you can′t follow me
And you can't call, and you can't say anything
This is where it′s gonna end
Not gonna try to be your friend
All I want is you to get
Out of my heart, out of my head
This is how a woman leaves
Even though it′s killin' me
I′ll make it look so easy
That even I believe me (oh)
Oh, oh
Go ahead and look me in the eye
Oh, oh
Go ahead, pretend that you're surprised
Oh, oh (oh)
This is how a woman leaves
If this is how it′s gonna be now
I'll go where you can′t follow me
And you can't call, and you can't say anything
You have the nerve to ask why I′m not cryin′
I did all my cryin' lyin′ next to you
