Thank you for the roses that you sent me, they're beautiful.

And you asked me to think of you.  You know I will

Your note just said, "I'm sorry, please forgive me"

I always do, I but have to let you know the way I feel

"But sometimes lovin' me
           D/F#        -stop
Just means leavin' me
        G* D* G* D*
Alone"

Cause I need some time alone to kill this pain
           Cadd9                         Bm
You should know that I don't give up easily
        Cadd9               D                    Em7* Cadd9*
But sometimes for things to grow, they need some rain.
          G                    D/F#        -stop
Sometimes lovin' me just means leavin' me
