If you wanna leave
baby
I won't beg you to stay

And if you wanna go
darling
maybe it's better that way
I'm gonna be strong
I'm gonna be fine

Don't worry about this heart of mine
Walk out the door
see if I care
go on and go now
but 

Don't turn around
'cause you're gonna see my heart breaking

Don't turn around
I don't want you seeing me crying
Just walk away
it's tearing me apart that you're leaving

I'm letting you go and I won't let you know

Baby
I won't let you know

I won't miss your arms around me
holding me tight
And if you ever think about me just know
that I'm gonna be alright
I'm gonna be strong
I'm gonna be fine

Don't worry about this heart of mine
I know I'll survive it
I'll make it through

And I'll learn to live without you
but 

Don't turn around

'cause you're gonna see my heart breaking

I wish I could scream out loud that I love you

I wish I could say to you: Don't go
don't go
don't go!

Don't turn around

Don't turn around
I don't want you seeing me crying
Just walk away
it's tearing me apart that you're leaving

I'm letting you go

Don't turn around

'cause you're gonna see my heart breaking
