Separate Ways

I opened your letter
I wanted to see
I knew that I shouldn’t
It’s nothing to do with me
I had my suspicions
And you had your lies
We were one happy family
Living in disguise

I’m going to be bigger than you
Since you left me hanging around
I’m going to be stronger than you
When I leave this town for good
So don’t you cry for me
You can save your tears
I know you’ve lied to me
For so many years

But now that you’re here
I haven’t got a word to say
This moment’s so clear
We can go our separate ways
Separate ways

You knew I’d forgive you
Whatever the cost
I thought I was sensitive
You believed I was lost
Now this nightmare is over
Now the smoke is all cleared
This wound is much deeper
Then I could have ever feared

I’m going to be bigger than you
Since you left me hanging around
I’m going to be stronger than you
When I leave this town for good
So don’t you cry for me
You can save your tears
I know you’ve lied to me
For so many years

You opened the door, but I was already gone
You believed that you didn’t do anything wrong
You betrayed me
