Lyrics

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

I found your letters underneath the bed

Every promise written in a shaky hand

You told me twice you'd change

You told me that you tried

I read the truth in black and white

And truth don't need a witness

Pre-Chorus

So I packed the kettle and the good plates

Left your slippers by the door

You can keep the Sunday silence

I don't want it anymore

Chorus

I'm leaving

I'm leaving you

(Leaving you)

I'm leaving

I'm leaving you

(Leaving you)

Your love was cheap and I paid full price

I'm leaving you tonight

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

(Oh oh oh)

Oh oh oh

(Oh oh oh)

Verse 2

You couldn't hold a job or hold my hand

You couldn't hold a thought for more than a day

I carried every stone

You carried nothing home

The neighbours heard me crying

They never heard you call my name

Pre-Chorus

So I'll take the train at midnight

Watch the chimneys slip away

You can keep your half apologies

I've got nothing left to say

Chorus

I'm leaving

I'm leaving you

(Leaving you)

I'm leaving

I'm leaving you

(Leaving you)

Your love was cheap and I paid full price

I'm leaving you tonight

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

(Oh oh oh)

Oh oh oh

(Oh oh oh)

Bridge

Truth is a woman walking out the door

Truth is a woman who won't beg for more

Truth is a woman who has finally seen

The man you were and the man you'll always be

Breakdown

(Truth is a woman)

(Truth is a woman)

(Truth is a woman walking out the door)

(Truth is a woman walking out the door)

Chorus

I'm leaving

I'm leaving you

(Leaving you)

I'm leaving

I'm leaving you

(Leaving you)

Your love was cheap and I paid full price

I'm leaving you tonight

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

(Oh oh oh)

Oh oh oh

(Oh oh oh)

Outro

I don't hate you

I just don't need you

(Don't need you)

(Don't need you)

(Don't need you)

(Don't need you)
