I've been sitting here alone all night Thinking 'bout things that I'm gonna write When you read this goodbye note you'll know I've had enough But it should come at no surprise to you Knowing you treat me the way you do You've made lovin' too hard and living too rough I just need a good place to start To say what I really feel in my heart And what I'm gonna write to you is long overdue And don't expect me to change my mind Or try to read something between the lines Make no mistake about it baby, we're through But every word I write comes out I love you I just want to say it's over no matter how I try Every word I write comes out I love you Guess I've loved you much too long to say goodbye
