138

So, you're leaving, aren't you'

I knew it when you said just then when you told me you were leaving

That's when I definitely knew

But if you're trying to break my heart

Your plan is flawed from the start

You can't break my heart, it's liquid

It melted when I met you

And as you turn around to leave

Don't' turn back to me

Don't turn around and see if I'm crying

I'm not crying

I'm not crying

It's just been raining on my face

And if you think you see some tear tracks down my cheeks

Please. Pleasee, don't tell my mates

I'm not crying

No, I'm not crying

And if I am crying

It's not because of you

It's because I'm thinking about a friend of mine who you don't know who is dying

That's right, dying

These aren't tears of sadness because you're leaving me

I've just been cutting onions

I'm making a lasagna

For one

Oh, I'm not crying

No

There's just a little bit of dust in my eye

That's from the path that you made when you said your goodbye

I'm not weeping because you won't be here to hold my hand

For your information there's an inflammation in my tear gland

I'm not upset because you left me this way

My eyes are just a little sweaty today

They've been looking around

They're like searching for you

They've been looking for you

Even though I told them not to

These aren't tears of sadness

They're tears of joy

I'm just laughing

Ha ha ha-ha ha

I'm sitting at this table called love

Staring down at the irony of life

How come we've reached this fork in the road

And yet it cuts like a knife

I'm not crying

I'm not crying
