When You Leave - Blue October

When you leave — just have the decency to go When you move on — don’t call me up to let me know.

When your life runs on fast enough it will leave you behind.

The sudden moments when you feel the need to go.

The someone else’s — there’s no need to let me know.

When you leave me, just turn out the nightlights — and let me go.

When you leave — please sense the need to be unkind.

When you move on — don’t leave a note for me to find.

When your life runs on fast enough it will leave you behind.

And we won’t sleep apart this wind will set you free.

And you wont break this heart it’s strong enough you see.

When you leave me, just turn out the nightlights — and let me go.

The sudden moments when you feel the need to go.

The someone else’s — there’s no need to let me know.

When you leave me, just turn out the nightlights — and let me go.
