Lyrics

I’ll Show Myself Out
(Eric Erdman and Bruce Greenwood)

Last thing I want tonight is pity
or to hear how much you care
that's where it all gets sticky
when you're saying you can’t be here...

You sit beside me on the sofa
Tears in your eyes
It’s never easy saying it’s over
It’s a scene I recognize

I’ve just never been on this side before
I don’t know what it’s all about
But I’ve been on that side enough to know
how it ends no doubt
Don’t get up. Nothing’s gonna change the story now
Don’t get up. I’ll show myself out

It shouldn't be this hard to take
after all the practice that I've had
You’d figure I could at least fake it
and pretend it's not so bad

Just say we're done; straight, no chaser
don't tell me I'll get by
or someone better will be right around the corner
Don't leave me with a lie

I’ve just never been on this side before
I don’t know what it’s all about
But I’ve been on that side enough to know
how it ends no doubt
Don’t get up. Nothing’s gonna change the story now
Don’t get up. I’ll show myself out

Don’t get up. Nothing’s gonna change the story now
Don’t get up. I’ll show myself out
