That's Just the Way She Goes

When we first met
She had lots of boyfriends
I worked so hard
To get rid of them
When she promised her love to me
I thought we'd be living on easy street

We found a house
On the right side of town
Bought furniture
And some art she found
Our life was a magazine rack
Then Modern Bride turned into Road and Track

Chorus
Now I'm watching as she's leaving
My eyes see it, but I don't believe it
I can't believe she said adios
I guess that's just the way she goes

Before too long
She started looking bored
Staying out late
While I walked the floor
Now she says she's going to stay
I said baby please don't leave me this way

I said baby
How 'bout another chance
I'll do better
At making romance
Give me a chance to change your mind
She tapped her watch and said it's leaving time

Chorus
Now I'm watching as she's leaving
My eyes see it, but I don't believe it
I can't believe she said adios
I guess that's just the way she goes
