I'm burning up in cruel desire
As I'm lying here alone
You cut me loose from a wire
I was barely hanging on
My hopes could not have been much higher
When you called me on the phone
Naively blinded to the truth
That I could already have known
And I wonder if you know what you're doing to me
You're breaking up 'cause you wanna be free
Oeh, I'm glad you're leaving
You got me caught up in a love that you barely ever wanted to be in
I was a fool, but now I'm seeing
That the way you treated me made this love never worth to believe in
Your words kicked in like friendly fire
On that Sunday afternoon
But what hurt the most was that you were able
To forget me way too soon
As I was trying to find the answers
Staring endless at the moon
Feeling desperate and deceived
'Cause there was nothing I could do
And I wonder if you know what you're doing to me
You're breaking up 'cause you wanna be free
Oeh, I'm glad you're leaving
You got me caught up in a love that you barely ever wanted to be in
I was a fool, but now I'm seeing
That the way you treated me made this love never worth to believe in
And all those times that you asked me to stay
When you said that you wouldn't want it any other way
Now you tell me it's no longer the same
Just close the door, when you're walking away
I'm glad you're leaving
You got me caught up in a love that you barely ever wanted to be in
I was a fool, but now I'm seeing
That the way you treated me made this love never worth to believe in
Oeh, I'm glad you're leaving
You got me caught up in a love that you barely ever wanted to be in
I was a fool, but now I'm seeing
That the way you treated me made this love never worth to believe in
