`Cause I don`t want to see me leaving in her eyes
And I can`t stand to watch her watch me make her cry
And I don`t know a right way I can do her wrong
So I don`t want to be here in the morning
When she wakes up and finds me gone
It hurts to know how much she`ll hurt
I`ve told myself things could be worse
And I`ve convinced myself she`s better off this way
By the time she finds I`m gone
I`ll be a long, long way from home
When she reads a note of things I couldn`t say
`Cause I don`t want to see me leaving in her eyes
And I can`t stand to watch her watch me make her cry
And I don`t know a right way I can do her wrong
So I don`t want to be here in the morning
When she wakes up and finds me gone
Lord I don`t want to be here in the morning
When she wakes up and finds me gone
