You broke the news without preamble, it won't be too long before your gone
so give me time to think it through so this is it you're moving on
Maybe its the best thing for you maybe its the hardest way
to stop these things we've set in motion it seems forever yesterday

This must be love for you to give this up I know how hard this must be
for you
If this is the way, how it's gotta be You will get no arguments from me

You'll leave the band to be a man so time wont pass you by
you'll find a wife and start a life I hope things turn out right
