Never dreamed that it would be so easy
To see you finally walking out the door
But I'm tired of trying to make you smile
Living everyday a trial
Tired of always being the one who love the little more

It was time for you to leave me
It was time, it was time
When you really get down to the bottom line
We never had the poetry
We just tried to make it rhyme
It was time that we were over
It was time

Now I know the emptiness I'm feeling
Is more for what we missed than what we had
Cause watching something dying slow can hurt much more than letting go
And even with the loneliness you know I'm kind of glad

It was time for you to leave me
It was time, it was time
When you really get down to the bottom line
We never had the poetry
We just tried to make it rhyme
It was time that we were over
It was time

And I guess I wasn't right for you and you weren't meant for me
And it doesn't pay to sell your soul just for company
It's better being lonely

It was time for you to leave me
It was time, it was time
When you really get down to the bottom line
We never had the poetry
We just tried to make it rhyme
It was time that we were over
It was time

It was time
