But the minute I saw him hanging around
I felt a little cold inside,
Remembering the guy that you let down
Just before you met me
And I figure the same could happen to me
    So tell me when you want to leave
    'cos you don't want to see another heartbreak.

You know I'm such an easy guy
But I can be sad and I won't deny
That I may sit alone and cry
So try to make it easy whatever you decide.
Even though the truth is hard
It's better than being left in the dark
    So tell me when you want to leave
    'cos you don't want to see another heartbreak.

I know that I'll forget you
But I don't want to let you go,
Though I don't want to stop you
I feel I ought to let you know...

So pick up everything you need,
Your dresses, your money, your books and your keys.
You've got to live the life you lead
So go ahead and live don't think about me
And baby don't apologise,
It isn't such a big surprise
    But tell me when you want to leave
    'cos you don't want to see another heartbreak
