I guess there's no turning back
We've come to the end of our rope
So use for me to keep on hanging on to hope
I guess I've done enough to be of blame
But damn me for wanting to be loved the same
Every second here with you feels like it's gonna be the last
I hate how time seems to pick the worse times to fly so fast
Just wish I could rewind and press pause
And see how long I can make the past seem to last
(Chorus)
Baby take your time as you're leavin
I can't seem to shake the way it hurts
Even though I've been knowin these days were comin
I try to brace myself but it doesn't seem to work
You know im gettin pretty used to saying goodbye
Wish I could say it gets easier but then that would be a lie
I'm not ready for the hurt I know I've got comin
I guess this should be the right time I start runnin
Ohhewwoh
(Verse 2)
If you're gonna go, don’t go like a thief
Stealin’ love in the middle of my grief
Don't vanish like a dream I can’t reclaim
Walk slow through the wreckage we became
Look at me once like you used to do
Before we forgot what we were holdin’ true
Let the silence speak before it’s done
Don’t treat this like a race — don’t run
---
(Bridge)
I ain't askin’ you to stay where your heart don’t live
Just give me time to take less than I give
Don’t shut the door like you never cared
Leave it cracked — like love still lingers there
(Chorus)
Baby take your time as you're leavin
I can't seem to shake the way it hurts
Even though I've been knowin these days were comin
I try to brace myself but it doesn't seem to work
You know im gettin pretty used to saying goodbye
Wish I could say it gets easier but then that would be a lie
I'm not ready for the hurt I know I've got comin
I guess this should be the right time I start runnin
Ohhewwoh
If you’re gonna leave, just don’t do it fast
Don’t let this love become another thing that couldn’t last
Don’t slam the door, don’t drop the key
Just ease on out like you still care for me
Step soft through the pieces we made
Let the goodbye take its time to fade
'Cause I ain't ready for the emptiness to rush in
So if you're leavin', let it feel like the wind
(Chorus)
Baby take your time as you're leavin
I can't seem to shake the way it hurts
Even though I've been knowin these days were comin
I try to brace myself but it doesn't seem to work
You know im gettin pretty used to saying goodbye
Wish I could say it gets easier but then that would be a lie
I'm not ready for the hurt I know I've got comin
I guess this should be the right time I start runnin
Ohhewwoh
