Oh what a shock to hear you say you're gonna leave me
Though you tried to let me down the easy way
You can't say you're gonna leave without it hurtin'
But thanks a lot for trying anyway

You were carefull with the words you chose to tell me
You couldn't break my heart in any nicer way
And you've done all that you could do to stop my teardrops
Well thanks a lot for trying anyway

I'm so sorry that I didn't take it better
I'd give a world if you have not seen me this way
It's not your fault you couldn't keep your love from dying
But thanks a lot for trying anyway
Thanks a lot for trying anyway
