You slipped in and really caught me by surprice
When you told me you were leaving me today
You say you've found another you love better
Well it was time for me to move on anyway
I've already loved you longer than I meant to and I'd've had to tell you so someday
All you've done is help to make it easy it was time for me to move on anyway
Thanks for the shelter and the coffee and the softest lips I've ever kissed
Which one will I miss the most I can't say
Thanks for the shoulder that I cried on and relied on you're takin' it away
But that's okay it was time for me to move on anyway
We've had lots of fun just living life together fun but in a deeper kind of way
I guess it's really best that you'll be leaving
Cause it was time for me to move on anyway
I just hate to leave a woman standin' cryin'
And I've loved a few and left 'em in my day
I just never heard the door slam from the inside
It was time for me to move on anyway
Thanks for the shelter...
