You left me,
I watched you drive away.
It was a Sunday.
I went to church and I prayed.
I hope God can help me, get over this hurt over you.

So why don't you leave me, like you said you were gonna do.
So why don't you leave me, because you said you wanted to.
I meant every word that I said.
And I better not see you driving back.
So why don't you leave me, I don't really wanna see you.
So why don't you leave me, why don't you?

You called me as you were driving down the road.
Saying "Baby I'm sorry, Please let me come back home."
I said "You don't need me" and as I hung up the phone,
I slid down the wall and a tear rolled down my cheek.

So why don't you leave me, like you said you were gonna do.
So why don't you leave me, because you said you wanted to.
I meant every word that I said.
And I better not see you driving back.
So why don't you leave me, I don't really wanna see you.
So why don't you leave me, why don't you?

You left me,
I watched you drive away.
It was a Sunday.
I went to church and I prayed.
I hope God can help me get over this hurt over you.
So why don't you leave me, why don't you?


The author's comments:
I wrote this song thinking of the line from Gloriana's song "If you're Leavin'". it says "If youre leaving, don't look back, leave me like you mean it". It is really about this boyfriend that broke up with me, and then he talks to me the exact same. I just wanted him to leave me alone so I can get over him, and then be friends later.. but this is my song "Why Don't You"
