Somebody told me you were leavin', I didn't know Somebody told me you're unhappy But it doesn't show Somebody told me that you don't want me no more, no So you're walkin' out the door Nobody told me you've been cryin' every night Nobody told me you'd been dyin' But didn't want to fight Nobody told me that you fell out of love from me So I'm settin' you free Let me be the one to break it up So you won't have to make excuses We don't need to find a set up where Someone wins and someone loses We just have to say our love was true But has now become a lie So I'm tellin' you I love you one last time And goodbye Somebody told me you still loved me I don't know why Nobody told me that you only needed time to fly Somebody told me that you want to come back when Our love is real again Let me be the one to break it up So you won't have to make excuses We don't need to find a set up where Someone wins and someone loses We just have to say our love was true But has now become a lie So I'm tellin' you I love you one last time And goodbye Just turn around and walk away You don't have to live like this, no, no But if you love me still then stay Don't keep me waiting for that final kiss We can work together through this test Or we can work through it apart I just need to get this off my chest That you will always have my heart Let me be the one Let me be the one to break it up So you won't have to make excuses We don't need to find a set up where Someone wins and someone loses We just have to say our love was true But has now become a lie So I'm tellin' you I love you one last time And goodbye Let me be the one
