By the time you read this I’ll be long gone My bags are all packed Time for me to move on I know this will hurt you It’s hurting me too We both know deep down It’s the best thing to do It’s the best thing for you And the best thing for me And it’s best for our children It’s quite clear to see I can stay here no longer In this house I call home You know things aren’t right I’m better off on my own Don’t take this too hard Please get on with your life I’m so very sorry I’m no longer your wife
