The Sound Of Your Goodbye

Girl, Ive got scars and Ive seen stars
From men nearly twice my size
Yeah, lifes sticks and stones have broke a few bones
But Ive always survived

So when I take a look at all Ive took
It dont seem right to me
How a little bitty woman with just a few words
Come bring me to my knees

Sticks and stones, wouldnt hurt a bit
Compared to the cold, cruel words that just left your lips

Id rather you pick up a rock, a stick full of thorns
Rear back and let em fly
Cause those sticks wouldnt cut, stones hurt as much
As the sound of your goodbye

Yeah, I know Im the reason for youre leavin
Im to blame sure enough
Its like you say there aint a woman made
That can live without true love

So if its too late to set things straight
And theres no forgivin me
Then dont say nothin, just pick you up somethin
Thatll end this misery

Sticks and stones wouldnt hurt a bit
Compared to the cold, cruel words that just left your lips

Id rather you pick up a rock, a stick full of thorns
Rear back and let em fly
Cause those sticks wouldnt cut, stones hurt as much
As the sound of your goodbye
