Mary Chapin Carpenter This Is Me Leaving You
This is your voice of reason
This is your voice of calm
This is your heart that's speaking
Saying the time has come
Here is your pride and grace now
Here is your strength and soul
Everything's at the ready
You're finally good to go
Now tell him there's one last thing
That you forgot to do
This is me leaving you
This is me leaving you
He told you to try believing
He asked you to keep the faith
He took all that you were giving
As if it all were his to take
Now it's the truth that won't let go
Now it's the facts that you can't shake
Now it's just time to let him know
But you made a big mistake
Maybe these final words will offer up a clue
This is me leaving you, this is me leaving you
This is me baby, breaking us in two
This is me leaving you
I'm your better half
Baby, that's a laugh
This is your voice of reason
This is your voice of calm
This is your heart that's speaking
Don't look back, just keep on going
This is me leaving you
This is me leaving you, yeah
This is me leaving you
This is me leaving you
