lyrics

Sorry you had to let me down
Pretend you never heard a sound
All you have to do is turn around
I never even should have asked

Don't waste a tender word or touch
It's too little then it's all too much
So while God knows you never care to rush
You should get out of here real fast

Just turn and go away
And don't say you need someone to walk you home
I just need a little time
To hide away from everything I've shown
Don't let it break your heart
Just because I had to let you break my own
Please just leave me alone

Let rain keep falling at my feet
Let lightning chase you down the street
As you hear thunder laugh at my defeat
I'd better get myself inside

Grey city sidewalks in the rain
Grey skies and pavement left to blame
I watch them tumble down the drain
There's no place I can run and hide

Just turn and go away
And don't say you need someone to walk you home
I just need a little time
Let me hide away from everything I've shown
Don't let it break your heart
Just because I had to let you break my own
Please just leave me alone

If I could change in any way
If I could ask another day
What could I give to make you stay and see?
Now you don't have a thing to say
Now you've run out of games to play
Now I just hope you'll walk away from me

Don't care enough to go inside
Cold rain will wash away my pride
Bury me right here when I have died
Beneath a stop light blinking red

Don't turn and smile to catch my eye
Don't even try to say good-bye
Why did you have to see me cry?
You should have walked away instead

Just turn and go away
And don't say you need someone to walk you home
I just need a little time
To hide away from everything I've shown
No don't let it break your heart
Just because I had to let you break my own
Please just leave me alone

Please just leave...
