"That's You Leavin'"
:[ lyrics ]:
There are two glowing headlights,
Disappearing down a driveway.
Out of focus in the damp night air.
There's a lingering smell of perfume,
And an echoe of footsteps,
From a woman that's no longer there.
That's you leavin' me.
That's all the evidence that anyone would need.
That's you leaving me.

There's a smoldering Marlboro,
In a Tiffany ashtray,
With a red lipstick kiss on the end.
There's a slow melting icecube,
In a cool crystal glass.
And a door that's still flung out on the hinge.
That's you leavin' me.
That's all the evidence that anyone would need.
That's you leaving me.

It didn't take a super-sleuth to know,
It was only a matter of time before you'd go.

There's a hole in a heart,
Tha somehow keeps beating,
Pumping blood into a brain that's numb.
And two lungs that keep breathing,
But will not hold their breath,
In the hope that back you'll come.
That's you leavin' me.
That's all the evidence that anyone would need.
That's you leaving me.
I'm not astonished, it was always meant to be.
That's you leaving me.
