Lyrics
The Leavin’ Game
Just a small town romance
We met at the harvest dance
Saw the preacher, said "I do",
Through the years our family grew
But now you stay out half the night
All we ever do is fight
You found someone new
The thrill has gone, what can I do?
Found out you left me and it made me blue
Heart in a muddle don’t know if its true
I keep on thinking ‘bout those things you do
. . . . I bet you miss my lovin’ too?
I’m not a gal who gives her heart away
Not gonna beg and try to make you stay
You gave me kissin’ fit for a gourmet
I gave it back to you
Maybe it’s called the leaving game
. . . . Its breaks my heart in two
Why are you the one I love?
. . . . Why did it have to be you?
Gal with the red dress and that lipstick kiss-on
It seems that breaking hearts is just a mission
You broke my heart and didn’t ask permission
. . . . Its called the leaving game
