You leave me here with a bad taste in my mouth
Leave with my friends and head right out of town
And I'll miss you like I miss an old toothache
Leaving you is gonna fix all my mistakes
So I'll take my car and head straight out west
Finally find a place where I can rest
And I've been so run down from the things you say
And leaving you is gonna fix all my mistakes
But honey when I lay in bed at night
It's me that's left alone and crying for you and ain't that cruel
And since it seems like you don't care
I'll be headed straight to where I know there's no you
So I'll call up my old friends and have a good time
Fix all the pain you left and try to unwind
And I'll be back to my old self one of these days
Cause leaving you is gonna fix all my mistakes
Leaving you is gonna fix all my mistakes
And leaving you is gonna fix all my mistakes
