Selfishly, part of me
Wishes there was a part of me
That could be
What you see potentially
Everything you want

Married by a preacher that we both know
At least I get to lie awake alone
Knowing that you're better off with me long gone

‘Cause I loved you enough
To know I ain't what
You'd need in the end
And I left your heart breakin'
When I hit the pavement
And I'd do it again
‘Cause you might hate me now
But someday yeah somehow
You're gonna see
That I loved you, enough to
Leave

Could've stayed
Could've made
Every day
A masquerade
Playing house
Talking ‘bout
Everything but everything outside of those county lines
Being happy being so confined
Know you're gonna say I didn't try

But I loved you enough
To know I ain't what
You'd need in the end
And I left your heart breakin'
When I hit the pavement
And I'd do it again
‘Cause you might hate me now
But someday yeah somehow
You're gonna see
That I loved you, enough to
Leave

And I didn't call you
‘Cause damn it I knew
If I heard your voice
I would turn right around

And I loved you enough
To know I ain't what
You'd need in the end
I left your heart breakin'
When I hit the pavement
And I'd do it again
‘Cause you might hate me now
But someday yeah somehow
When you find that someone that ain't me
You'll see
That I loved you, enough to
Leave
Yeah I loved you enough to
Leave
