She's Leaving Me Because She Really Wants To
Farewell Freedom: Embracing Happiness Beyond Goodbyes
Lyrics
Thank you my friend
Expressing gratitude to a friend.
I sincerely appreciate the words you say
Thankful for the kind words received.
About how she'll cry
Referring to comments about the woman's emotional response.
And how she'll grieve and miss me
Anticipating the woman's feelings of sorrow and longing.
When she goes away
Highlighting the imminent departure of the woman.
Say them again
Requesting the friend to repeat comforting words.
I need to hear the words once more
Expressing the need to hear reassurance again.
I can't believe
Expressing disbelief about the woman's future emotions.
How she'll miss me when she's gone
Emphasizing the anticipated longing and missing.
And how she'll want to come back home
Describing the hope that she'll return and never leave again.
And never leave
Emphasizing the desire for the woman to stay permanently.
But she's leaving me
Stating the reason for her departure.
Because she really wants to
Affirming that she's leaving willingly.
And she'll be happy when she's gone
Contrasting the expectation of sadness with the anticipation of her happiness.
She'll be happy
Repeating the idea of her future happiness.
She'll be so very happy
Emphasizing her extreme happiness after leaving.
She'll dance and sing
Describing her joyful activities after leaving.
Or even learn to fly
Imagining her engaging in extraordinary activities.
And spend her time with anyone but me
Speculating on her spending time with others.
What's that you say
Responding to a comment about the speaker's recovery over time.
That I'll get over her the more that time goes by
Expressing skepticism about overcoming the emotional pain.
But time goes so slow
Commenting on the perceived slowness of time during emotional distress.
When all I have to do is sit around and cry
Describing the speaker's current state of sorrow.
No she won't be back
Acknowledging the finality of her departure.
I'd be a fool to try to fool myself that way
Acknowledging the futility of false hope.
I know she hasn't one regret
Asserting the woman's lack of regret.
Because she hasn't had one since
Emphasizing her regret-free state since arriving.
The day she came to stay
Referring to the woman's initial arrival as a significant point.
She's leaving me
Reiterating the reason for her departure.
Because she really wants to
Affirming her voluntary decision to leave.
And she'll be happy when she's gone
Repeating the expectation of her happiness after leaving.
She'll be happy
Reiterating the idea of her post-departure happiness.
She'll be so very happy
Emphasizing her extreme happiness after leaving.
She'll dance and sing
Describing her joyful activities after leaving.
And even learn to fly
Imagining her engaging in extraordinary activities.
And spend her time with anyone but me
Speculating on her spending time with others.
She'll be happy when she's gone
Repeating the anticipation of her happiness after leaving.
She'll be happy when she's gone
Reiterating the anticipation of her happiness after leaving.
She'll be happy when she's gone
-She'll be happy when she's gone
