At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never leave
But then I spent so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
And I learned how to get along
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock,
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
you'd be back to bother me
Gone out the hall, walk by the door,
Cause you're not welcome anymore,
were you the one who tried to hurt me?
With goodbye, think I'd crumble,
think I'd lay down and die
As long as I know how to love
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
Oh, baby, I took all the trains,
I tried hard to mend the pieces
I had spent so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
but now I hold my head up high
And you see me, somebody new
I'm not a chained up little
person still in love with you
And so you feel like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
Now I'm saving all my love
for someone who's loving me
Go now, go, what can I do?
cause you're not welcome anymore
Well, you're the one who tried
they got laid down in time
as long as I know how to love
I got all my love to live
I got all my love to give
