They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave No matter what you do or say, it's there and then it's gone away Some may love to give it all Head over heels they'll always call They're only left with 9-to-5 days Some they learn to roll the dice And some they learn by blackened eyes And some they learn out on the highway Love ain't even what it seems 'cause hearts don't only beat, they break It could be bursting at the seams, but it all ends the same damn way They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave No matter what you do or say, it's there and then it's gone away They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave I'm begging of you, begging of you, begging of you, begging of you please Lock the door and throw away the key You grow up quick, you grow up fast, you grow attached, then it don't last You don't break, but you keep bending No one tells you anything Our love is pulling on a string, yet you will never find the ending Love ain't even what it seems 'cause hearts don't only beat, they break It could be bursting at the seams, but it all ends the same damn way They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave No matter what you do or say, it's there and then it's gone away They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave I'm begging of you, begging of you, begging of you, begging of you please Lock the door and throw away the key Lock the door and throw away the key Lock the door and throw away the key
