Well i`ve been on the wrong side
Of the front door too often
Watched you slam it in my face
Well i may have learned the hard way
I`m not a soft one
Tonight i`m standin in your place
Cause you taught me a lot about leavin
Won`t even have to try
So here`s your lesson in heartache and grievin
And a chance for you to cry
Cause it`s time you learned about goodbye
I`ve stood behind you
And i`ve laid beside you
But i won`t do that anymore
Cause i`m tired of bein
Just here when you want me
Tonight i`m walkin out that door
Cause you taught me a lot about leavin
Won`t even have to try
So here`s your lesson in heartache and grievin
And a chance for you to cry
Cause it`s time you learned about goodbye
