The following are lyrics to Sometimes You Leave, which were written by Kara DioGuardi, Chris Tompkins, and Shridhar Solanki.



All the raindrops

In the sky tonight

Can't compare with all the pain and all the tears I've cried

But now I'm done

All the make believe

Locked in this picture frame

Is gonna stay behind along

With all the burnin' rage

That's been tearin' through my heart

Killin' me slowly, every beat I was fallin' apart

Sometimes you give, sometimes they take

Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down

Sometimes you stick around

Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be

And sometimes you leave

All this time I've spent

Starin' at the door

I've never had the strength to pack my bags

And leave before

But now I'm done

Lyin' to myself when it's clear that you're not the one

Sometimes you give, sometimes they take

Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down

Sometimes you stick around

Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be

And sometimes you leave

When there's nothin' left for me to leave behind

And you're already too far gone to say goodbye

Sometimes you give, sometimes they take

Sometimes you bend and sometimes they break you down

Sometimes you stick around

Tryin' to change them, make them someone that they'll never be

And sometimes you leave

Sometimes you leave
