Lyrics

Now it’s My Turn to Go

Last week you packed your bags and left me
like you've done, many times before
Now you're pleading to come back again
I find you knocking and crying at my door.

You taught me how to go when you ran
You taught me how to walk away
So, when you hear that screen door slam
You'll know I learned to leave your way

Now it's my turn to go, just like you did before
Now it's my turn to slam that door.
Now it's my turn to scream, my turn to shout,
and see what that's all about.
Now it's my turn to go, just like you did before

I know you wrote the book on leaving
I watched you, and I learned every line
This time the leavings yours to watch
And the going’s finally mine

Now it's my turn to go, just like you did before
Now it's my turn to slam that door.
Now it's my turn to scream, my turn to shout,
and see what that's all about.
Now it's my turn to go, just like you did before
