The
longer
you
wait
to
leave
me
the
longer
I'll
hurt
when
you're
gone
And
the
longer
it
takes
you
to
break
my
heart
the
longer
the
pain
lingers
on
How
long
will
you
prolong
my
misery
wish
I
could
leave
on
my
own
Cause
the
longer
you
wait
to
leave
me
the
longer
I'll
hurt
when
you're
gone
We
both
know
that
you
never
loved
me
I
lied
to
myself
from
the
start
We
both
know
that
someday
you'll
leave
me
and
the
knowin'
just
tears
me
apart
How
long
will
you
prolong
my
misery...
The
longer
I'll
hurt
when
you're
gone
