When you pack your clothes tonight
Don't pack up all the blame
You're not the first to walk away
And leave someone in pain
I know how much it's hurting you
Hurting me this way
Believe me i've been in your shoes
And i know you can't stay
I've been on both sides of goodbye
And i know there ain't no easy side
I've loved and i've been loved
But not at the same time
I've been on both sides of goodbye
Don't feel so bad for doing
What you've gotta do
You can't make your heart
Love me if it don't want to
When love doesn't go both ways
Then someone got to go
So close that door don't look back
Believe me i know
