French Exit Lyrics

I don't wanna stay 'til the lights come on
I just can't relate to the words of this love song
What's it gonna take to right all the wrongs?
'Cause, right now, I can't give you what you want
Everybody's still dancin'
Everybody's holdin' hands and romancin'
Someone's gotta be the last one standin'
And I hate that I'm leavin' you stranded
But I gotta hit the road
But I gotta hit the road
It's not a broken heart if I don't break it
"Goodbye" doesn't hurt if I don't say it
And I really hope you'll understand it
Only way to go is a French exit
French exit, filer à l'anglaise
French exit
Maybe time away will make it make sense
I'm better at a clean break than leavin' doors open
I know you're gonna say I should've stayed 'til the end
But, right now, I can't give you what you want
Everybody's still dancin'
Everybody's holdin' hands and romancin'
Someone's gotta be the last one standin'
And I hate that I'm leavin' you stranded
But I gotta hit the road
Yeah, I gotta hit the road
It's not a broken heart if I don't break it
"Goodbye" doesn't hurt if I don't say it
And I really hope you'll understand it
Only way to go is a French exit
And you know, you know, you know, you know I'm right
And it's better to do this than say goodbye
And the only, only, only fix is time
And a lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely night
It's not a broken heart if I don't break it (ooh)
"Goodbye" doesn't hurt if I don't say it (and you know, you know)
(You know, you know I'm right)
And I really hope you'll understand it (and you know, you know, you know, you know)
Only way to go is a French exit (ooh)
French exit, filer à l'anglaise
French exit, c'est la seule solution
French exit
French exit
