I can check out any time I like
   Nothing hurts like brave tomorrows
   At the end of your line
   Close the door and hide the phone
   Nip the bud and still the branches
   That you’re leaving behind
  
   I should have told you
   That’s not the way
   That’s no way to break my heart
   I should have told you
   That’s not the way
   That’s no way to break my
   That’s no way to break my heart
  
   I could tell by the way you walked
   I could tell by the way you gave me
   What I knew wasn’t mine
   Doesn’t matter if it’s all night long
   Doesn’t matter if you’re gone by Monday
   Just as long as you’re right
  
   I should have told you
   That’s not the way
   That’s no way to break my heart
   I should have told you
   That’s not the way
   That’s no way to break my
   That’s no way to break my heart
  
   I don’t know what side you’re on
   I don’t know what makes you happy
   Except watching me cry
   Like a ghost in an old hotel
   Hanging onto bits of nothing
   I’m leaving you now
