I am leaving you because I don't love you
I am leaving you because I don't love youOh it's the knowledge,
It's the knowledge,
It's the knowledge
Of future calamity
That makes my voice tremble
With greater dignity.I am leaving you because I don't love you
I am leaving you because I don't love you
I'm sorry I have to be this brutally honestly cold
But my excuses were babies of snow that I just could not hold
So you pick up your asthma inhaler and put it 'gainst your lips,
Oh those lips I've loved, that I was dreaming of,
They're still red and soft, I'm so sorry I couldn't love you enough
I'm so sorry I couldn't love you enough
I'm so sorryBut I'm leaving you because I don't love you
I am leaving you because I don't love you
So you pick up your asthma inhaler and put it 'gainst your lips,
Oh those lips I've loved, that I was dreaming of,
They're still red and soft, I'm so sorry I couldn't love you enough
So sorry I couldn't love you enoughI'm so sorry
