Leavin' And Sayin' Goodbye Lyrics - Jack Greene

So many times I told you I was leavin' 

And so many times how I tried 

'Cause sayin' you're leavin's so much easier 

Than leavin' and sayin' goodbye 

'Cause every time I'd start to go 

I wouldn't get ten feet 

Till I'd go runnin' back like a runaway child 

Who's afraid to cross the street 

My mind might tell my lips to say it's over 

But my heart would only know it's a lie 

'Cause sayin' you're leavin's so much easier 

Than leavin' and sayin' goodbye 

'Cause every time I'd start to go 

I wouldn't get ten feet 

Till I'd go runnin' back like a runaway child 

Who's afraid to cross the street
