I opened my heart, gave you a home
I built you up a temple to keep you safe and warm
But under the sand you became stone
And I couldn't carry all the weight
You crushed me to the bone

So goodbye, goodbye...

I'm walking away
Said all I can say
Today is the day

I put in my time
Now I'm drawing the line
Today is the day

Well, look at my soul, you're bleeding me dry
Like a thousand stars falling down
There's no more tears to cry
Well, even when I walk with you it's just a crawl
Down on my knees, I'm begging please
Baby don't take me all

So goodbye, goodbye...

I'm walking away
Said all I can say
Today is the day

I put in my time
Now I'm drawing the line
Today is the day

But can you tell me why it's gotta be so hard
Can you tell me why it's gotta be
So hard, hard to leave

To leave... to leave... to leave

I'm walking away
Said all I can say
Today is the day

I gotta hold on tight
What I know is that
'Cause I put in my time
Now drawing the line
Today is the day
Today is the day

Can you tell me, why it's gotta be
So hard, hard to leave
