The longer you wait to leave me the longer I'll hurt when you're gone

And the longer it takes you to break my heart the longer the pain lingers on

How long will you prolong my mis'ry wish I could leave on my own

Cause the longer you wait to leave me the longer I'll hurt when you're gone

[ ac.guitar - steel ]

We both know that you've never loved me I lied to myself from the start

We both know that someday you'll leave me and the knowing just tears me apart

How long will you prolong my mis'ry...

The longer I'll hurt when you're gone
