Lyrics

I've been avoiding this conversation
I've been afraid to hear where it might end
I knew you'd tell me there was something missing
Not you've been driven to another's bed

You don't want me, you don't need me
You look right through me like I don't exist
Won't you tell me, before you leave
Why did you have to let it come to this

I should have known that there was something missing
I should have seen it from the signs you set
You're in my arms every time come payday
But you'll be gone soon as the money's spent

Say I'm a fool, say I'm a freak
Say there's no passion in my loveless kiss
Won't you tell me, before you go
Why did you have to let it come to this

Do-la-do-la-la-do-la-la-do-la-la
Do-la-do-la-la-do-la-la
Do-la-do-la-la-do-la-la-la
Do-la-do-la-la-do-la-la

She's the kind of woman men would die for
No matter how the odds against them stack
It's just I wish I'd had a little warning
Before you stuck that knife into my back

You can break me, you can kill me
You can rob me of my dying breath
But there's this one thing I gotta know
Why did you have to let it come to this
Why did you have to let it come to this

Let it come, come, come
Let it come, come, come
Let it come, come, come, come
Let it come, come, come, come
Let it come, let it come, let it come

Oh, let it go so long
Let it go so long
Let it go so long, long, long, long
Long, long, long, long
