Lesson In Leaving (1980)
Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in leaving
Somebody's gonna give you what you've been giving and I hope that I'm around
To watch them knock you down
It's like you to love them and leave them just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing over and over again you're a fool-hearted man

I hear you been asking about me from some of my friends
But you better believe I'm not going through that again
You're the kind of man a woman thinks she can change
But the only thing changing is my way of thinking and I'm thinking that baby someday

Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in losing
Somebody's gonna do to you what you've been doing
And I hope that I'm around to watch them knock you down
Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in hurting
Somebody's gonna leave you with your fire burning with no way to put it out

There ain't no doubt you're a fool-hearted man

You're the kind of man a woman thinks she can change
The only thing changing is my way of thinking and I'm thinking that baby someday

Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in leaving
Somebody's gonna give you back what you've been given
And I hope that I'm around to watch them knock you down
It's like you to love them and leave them just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing over and over again you're a fool-hearted man

Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in leaving
Somebody's gonna give you back what you've been given
And I hope that I'm around to watch them knock you down
It's like you to love them and leave them just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing over and over again you're a fool-hearted man
