[Intro]
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
No matter what you do or say, it's there and then it's gone away

[Verse 1]
Some may love to give it all
Head over heels, they'll always call
They're only left with nine to five days
Some they learn to roll the dice
And some they learn by blackened eyеs
And some they learn out on thе highway

[Pre-Chorus]
Love ain't what it seems 'cause hearts don't only beat, they break
It could be bursting at the seams, but it all ends the same damn way

[Chorus]
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
No matter what you do or say, it's there and then it's gone away
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
I'm beggin' of you, beggin' of you, beggin' of you, beggin' of you, please
Lock the door and throw away the key

[Verse 2]
You grow up quick, you grow up fast
You grow attached, then it don't last
You don't break but you keep bending
No one tells you anything
Our love is pulling on a string
Yet you will never find the ending
[Pre-Chorus]
Love ain't what it seems 'cause hearts don't only beat they break
It could be bursting at the seams, but it all ends the same damn way

[Chorus]
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
No matter what you do or say, it's there and then it's gone away
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
I'm beggin' of you, beggin' of you, beggin' of you, beggin' of you, please
Lock the door and throw away the key
Lock the door and throw away the key

[Outro]
Lock the door and throw away the key
