lyrics

[VERSE 1: ]
I placed the note on the table
Put your key back in the drawer
I got my coat from the closet
And I, looked around once more

I turned the outside light on
For you when you get home
Leaving for the last time
But the first time alone

I don’t wanna hold you back
I don’t wanna drag this on, no
If this was gonna last
We wouldn’t have gone so wrong

[PRE CHORUS: ]
I don’t wanna hurt you now
But I gotta walk away
‘Cause we both know

[CHORUS 1: ]
I shouldn’t stay, I don’t wanna live a lie
I shouldn’t stay, Oh no no no
I shouldn’t stay, Someone has to say goodbye
I shouldn’t stay, Baby gotta go

[VERSE 2: ]
Memories of good times
They try to bring me back
But we moved too quickly
And we flew off the tracks

I know I just mist’ya
But, that was the intent
‘Cause I knew you’d just dust off
All those words you never meant

[PRE CHORUS: ]

[CHORUS 2: ]
I shouldn’t stay, We were never meant to be
I shouldn’t stay, Oh no no no
I shouldn’t stay, Someone has to set us free
I shouldn’t stay, Baby gotta go

[VERSE 3: ]
A song on the radio
Made me think of you
The way that our love first was
And the mess it turned into

[PRE CHORUS
(I shouldn’t stay)
I don’t wanna hurt you now (I shouldn’t stay)
I don’t wanna hurt you now
But I gotta walk away
‘Cause we both know (I shouldn’t stay)

[CHORUS 1: ]

[CHORUS 2: ]

Breanne Primeau Tyngsborough, Massachusetts

“To this day I still have no idea what on earth made me think I could sing, but I’m so happy I decided to try.” she says. “The sense of accomplishment I received from performing and the positive reaction from the crowd made that then 10 year old little girl fall madly in love. That was when I could no longer imagine a future for myself that didn’t include music.” ... more
