Lyrics
You said youreally loved everything was fine
You had me looking forward to a real good time
But then you told me that you'd found a better deal
And now you want forgiving this is how I feel
I don't wanna stay with you
Cos you broke my heart in two
You broke my heart I'm leaving you goodbye
I don't wanna stay with you
Cos you made my life so blue
I'm gettin' out and leaving you goodbye
You gave an explanation never making sense
You made a firm decision sitting on the fence
Looking very pretty from your castle view
You think you may be right but I'v got news for you
I don't wanna stay with you
Cos you broke my heart in two
You broke my hear I'm leaving you goodbye
I don't wanna stay with you
Cos you made my life so blue
I'm gettin' out and leaving you goodbye
You gave me feeling
My head was reeling
I felt so alive
But though it's gone from me
You can be sure that I'll survive
It's not a distraction or over reaction
I'm leaving today
Cos now you've cheated me
Nothing will make me wanna stay
The prospects of success were clear;y all to see
Handed on a plate and they were offered free
But still you went on looking for your magic moon
And through it all you failed to recognise my tune
I don't wanna stay with you.
