Tell Me to My Face

Will you try to justify the meaning
Of the note you sent this evening
To my door? You're not deceiving me
I'd have thought that you'd have known much better
Sending 'round an unsigned letter
Facing me would be much better now

Is it just that you can't face the future with me?
Can't you tell me to my face?
You just took the coward's way to say goodbye
How would you feel here in my place?

If at last I think I'm glad to rid myself of you, I'm sad
To think about the time I'll have to go
Then I'll turn and walk away, so please don't beg for me to stay
'Cause I know just what I will say to you

Is it just that you can't face the future with me?
Can't you tell me to my face?
You just took the coward's way to say goodbye
How would you feel here in my place?

Tell me to my face, you're leaving now
Tell me to my face, you're leaving now

Though you try to justify the meaning
Of the note you sent this evening
To my door, you're not deceiving me
I'd have thought that you'd have known much better
Sending 'round an unsigned letter
Facing me would be much better now

Is it just that you can't face the future with me?
Can't you tell me to my face?
You just took the coward's way to say goodbye
How would you feel here in my place?
