Lyrics
The reason why,
Oh, I can't say,
I have to let you go, go.
And right away.
After what you did
I can't stay on.
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone.
Baby, for a long time
You had me believe
That your love was all mine
And that's the way it would be.
But I didn't know
That you were putting me on.
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone.
Now, I've got to say
That it's not like before,
And I'm not gonna play
Your games any more.
After what you did
I can't stay on.
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better
When you're gone.
Oh, when you're gone.
Oh, when you're gone.
Oh, when you're gone.
