Lyrics
How Can You Tell Me You're Leavin'?
How Can You Tell Me You're Leavin'
How can you tell me good-bye
How Can You Tell Me You're Leavin' me...when you
Can't look me right in the eyes, you know I
Want to understand you, I wanna
Be part of your plan, I wanna
Be the best woman that I think I can
How Can You Tell Me You're Leavin'?
How can you tell me good-bye
How Can You Tell Me Your're Leavin'...when you
Can't look me right in the eyes, you know I
Wanna understand you, I wanna
See what you know, I wanna
Follow your footsteps, wherever I go
How Can You Tell Me You're Leavin'
How can you tell me good-bye
How Can You Tell Me You're Leavin', well
C'mon give it another try, you know I'll
Be there at the door step, when
You come 'round to call, I wanna
Put my arms around you, and
Hold you, that's all...
How Can You Tell Me You're Leavin'
How can you tell me good-bye
How Can You Tell Me Your're Leavin'...when you
Can't see the tears in my eyes.
