I've been down this road before I walk out the door Leave you on the floor Sometimes you run and hide Your foolish pride's What keeps me from Giving you more So the best thing I can give to you Is for me to go Leave you alone Cause you got growin' up to do Someday I'll return when its time For payment in kind The church bells will chime You'll stand before me surrounded by lights Dressed in white You throw flowers in the air this night But the best thing I can give to you Is for me to go Leave you alone You got growin' up to do Looks like the rain's pouring down on me It's drowning me now And all I want is to come back home And this old corduroy coat is not keeping me dry But I can't think of what else to try That's why the best thing I can give to you Is for me to go Leave you alone You got growin' up to do Yeah, the best thing I can give to you is for me to go Leave you alone You got growin' up to do
