Giving You Up

(альбом: We Were Cowboys - 2022)

Don't you dare try and reappear after you already got me standing here
I can't believe you would come at me looking for a little bit of sympathy
Like I wasn't the one you left all alone crying, looking like a hot mess
Don't show your face 'round here anymore, honey
This is something you better get through your head

'Cause I'm giving you up, just like I did them Marlboro Lights
And I'm giving you up, the same way I did the whiskey on ice
And it's all so tough, you turned me into a man I don't even recognize
I'm giving you up, the same way you did me out in the moonlight

What the hell are you thinking coming 'round to visit?
Completely uninvited, messing with my brain again
You couldn't give me the satisfaction of forgetting your existence
Showed up when I thought I'd finally found the end
Don't be coming over looking for a conversation
Dropping little hints that you want me back again
'Cause I'm so sick and tired of the little lies you tell me
So here is all I'm saying, baby, better listen in

'Cause I'm giving you up, just like I did them Marlboro Lights
And I'm giving you up, the same way I did the whiskey on ice
And it's all so tough, you turned me into a man I don't even recognize
I'm giving you up, the same way you did me out in the moonlight
Yeah, I'm giving you, I'm giving you, I'm giving you up

I'm letting go of all the things
That held their grips on me
With you being my first priority
'Cause death isn't worth the weight of your love no more
Yeah, I'm packing up, leaving, closing shop
There ain't no use for you in this heart no more
So I'm letting go

And I'm giving you up, just like I did them Marlboro Lights
And I'm giving you up, the same way I did the whiskey on ice
And it's all so tough, you turned me into a man I don't even recognize
I'm giving you up, the same way you did me out in the moonlight, oh, oh
Out in the moonlight, whoa

(I'm giving you, I'm giving you, I'm giving you up)
Oh, I'm giving you up
(I'm giving you, I'm giving you, I'm giving you up)
Oh, I'm giving you, I'm giving you, I'm giving you up
