Well I knew something wasn?t right the other night
When she came to bed angry
We used to talk before but lately we?ve been fighting
About the stupidest things
And I don?t know if we can come to some sort of conclusion here
There?s got to be an easy way to say goodbye without the pain and tears
That you cry

[Chorus]
I never wanted to give you away
Well I still love you but I don?t need you
I never wanted to give you away
Well I still love you but I don?t need you

Every morning 6 AM she kicks her blankets off the bed
Another cup of coffee, yes
She reads a funny paper book with tea
She doesn?t feel like laughing
I never meant to cause you pain
It?s something that I can?t explain
I?d only wish you?d stop and see
That all I have is you and me
I hope you know that I tried

[Chorus]

And I knew something wasn?t right the other night
When she came to bed angry
Used to talk before but lately we?ve been fighting
About the stupidest things
And I don?t know if we can come to some sort of conclusion here
There?s got to be an easy way to say goodbye without the pain and tears
That you cry

[Chorus]
