Well I've been on the wrong side
Of the front door too often
Watched you slam it in my face
Well I may have learned the hard way
I'm not a soft one
Tonight I'm standin' in your place

Cause you taught me a lot about leavin'
Won't even have to try
So here's your lesson in heartache and grievin'
And a chance for you to cry
Cause it's time you learned about goodbye

I've stood behind you
And I've laid beside you
But I won't do that anymore
Cause I'm tired of being
Just here when you want me
Tonight I'm walkin' out that door

Cause you taught me a lot about leavin'
Won't even have to try
So here's your lesson in heartache and grievin'
And a chance for you to cry
Cause it's time you learned about goodbye

It's time you learned about goodbye
