The choice of words don't matter The meaning's still the same It won't make me feel better To hear I'm not to blame Someday I'll forgive you Maybe then again I won't But I take no consolation In what the future holds Don't let me down easy Just let me go Don't tell me you'll call me When we already know This goodbye will last forever So let the bad times roll But don't let me down easy Don't let me down easy That's a hard way to go I should have seen it coming I should have faced the facts the more love that I gave you The less love you give back I guess I thought you'd come around Yea well we all make mistakes There ain't nothing good about this There ain't nothing left to say Don't let me down easy Just let me go Don't tell me you'll call me When we already know This goodbye will last forever So let the bad times roll But don't let me down easy Don't let me down easy Don't let me down easy That's a hard way to go
