[Verse 1]

Well, I've been on the wrong side

Of the front door too often

Watched you slam it in my face

Well, I may learn the hard way

I'm not a soft one

Tonight I'm standin' in your place

[Chorus]

'Cause you taught me a lot about leavin'

Won't even have to try

So here's your lesson in heartache and grievin'

And a chance for you to cry

'Cause it's time you learned about good-bye

[Verse 2]

I've stood behind you

And I've laid beside you

But I won't do that anymore

'Cause I'm tired of bein'

Just here when you want me

Tonight I'm walkin' out that door

[Chorus]

'Cause you taught me a lot about leavin'

Won't even have to try

So here's your lesson in heartache and grievin'

And a chance for you to cry

It's time you learned about good-bye

[Outro]

You taught me a lot about leavin'

Won't even have to try

So here's your lesson in heartache and grievin'

And a chance for you to cry

It's time you learned about good-bye

Yeah, you taught me a lot about leavin'

Won't even have to try

So here's your lesson in heartache and grievin'

And a chance for you to cry

'Cause it's time you learned about good-bye

It's time you learned about good-bye

It's time you learned about good-bye
