Well, I left your life by the side of the road
I got a clear conscience, decoded the code
Your bags are packed,
you're already gone
That's the last you'll hear of me
Move on, move on
I got a poor self-sounding brain in my head I've paid my dues,
I'm not crazy or dead
I know life is hard,
so am I
Don't cry for me, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
I've laid down my guns and ammunition
You can go now,
you can go now,
you can leave now But since my return permission
I've been fighting for you for most
of my life I fought as a girlfriend,
but as a wife
No prisoners, they say, are no one to love
While I'm going in the town, I am taking off
the gloves I've laid down my guns and ammunition
You can go now,
you can go now,
you can leave now
But since my return permission So when you tell Susan that's a lover
You can look her in the
eye
But when you tell Gina, you can look her in
the eye You can sleep with yourself,
you can sleep
with your lies, your lies,
your lies, your lies
I'm okay now,
goodbye
Some do it for the kids,
some do it for God Some do it forever,
some are a fraud
Some chase perfection and love for flavor
So don't stay beside me thinking you're doing me some sort of favor
Cause I've laid down my
guns and ammunition
You can go now, you can go now, you can leave
now I've laid down my guns and ammunition
You can go now,
you can go now,
you can leave now
But since my return permission
Return permission
My return permission
