[Verse 1]
I've been crying sicne you sent me that last message
You walked in, I held it in so you wouldn't know
You'd never been this quiet, been this cold
Door's open, truck's running
I know you gotta go
But I'm not ready for you to leave me behind
If this is really gonna be the last goodbye
[Chorus]
Leave that picture on the wall
Your dog's old tennis ball
And if you change your mind
You know just where I'll be
Leave those notes there in the box
Under the bed by your socks
'Cause you're already walking out with all of me
So take only what you need when you leave
[Verse 2]
I called Mama when you took that last box down
She said "don't worry, it'll be alright
The heart just needs some time"
She couldn't see the over me in your eyes
I'm trying to keep going
But I'm barely getting by
'Cause I ain't ready for you to leave me behind
So if it's really gonna be the last goodbye
[Chorus]
Leave that picture on the wall
Your dog's old tennis ball
And if you change your mind
You know just where I'll be
Leave those notes there in the box
Under the bed by your socks
'Cause you're already walking out with all of me
So take only what you need when you leave
[Bridge]
I know there ain't no way to stop you
Take all the time you got to
I never wanted it this way
I hope you see
If it were up to me
[Chorus]
We'd put more pictures on the wall
Even take some more this fall
And go and drink too much tequila in the Keys
We'd put more notes down in that box
Under the bed by your socks
But I guess that ain't the way it's gonna be
'Cause you're breaking all of me
So take only what you need when you leave
Mmhh
I've been crying sicne you sent me that last message

You'd never been this quiet, been this cold
Door's open, truck's running

If this is really gonna be the last goodbye
[Chorus]
Leave that picture on the wall
Your dog's old tennis ball
And if you change your mind
You know just where I'll be
Leave those notes there in the box
Under the bed by your socks
'Cause you're already walking out with all of me
