The more I needed, the less you gave
I guess you thought that it worked that way
And now that I'm leaving
You're not believing
A word I say 

[Chorus]
If you think I won't go
Watch me
Oh, just watch me prove you wrong today
You don't even know you've lost me
You think I'll always stay
Oh, just watch me walk away 

You keep telling me that it can't be done
That the world is colder without someone
Yeah, it might get lonely
It might get crazy
But this time baby, I'm as good as gone 

[Chorus]

You don't even know you've lost me
You think I'll always stay
Oh, just watch me walk away 

[Chorus]

Oh, just watch me walk away
Oh, just watch me walk away
