"Without Me Around" lyrics

Without Me Around

You say she asked if you knew
Where she could get
Some old boxes
Cause she was going to pack up
Everything she owned
Where the closest U-Haul place is
And what the cost was
This time tomorrow
She'll be gone

She says she knows of a place
To sell her ring
For a good price
That and what she saved
Will get her by
If she can find a job
In that little town
That she's headed to
To start over with her life

Without me around
Taking up her time
Tying her down
Without me in the way
She'll be free to enjoy
The freedom you say she's found
Without me around

Said she didn't know
What she was getting into
When we got married
But she knows good damn well
What she's getting out of
Said she's had enough of a man
Who's never there
When she needs him
She'll be better off
In the long run

Without me around
Taking up her time
Tying her down
Without me in the way
She'll be free to enjoy
The freedom you say she's found
Without me around

What she'd found
Without me around
