(You only love me when I leave) (You only love me when I leave) There must be something 'bout my taillights That makes it sink in Must be something 'bout my goodbye Gets you thinkin' Hey maybe there's still a chance Nah baby, you don't want to dance Till the rooms on fire Till it's down and while You only love me when I leave You only miss me when I'm gone You keep that heart under your sleeve Till I'm rollin my love, moving on You wait till I don't want you To tell me that you need me You only, love me Love me when I'm leavin' Here comes those I'm so sorry roses Right on que Yea, this old comeback records broken Feels like deja vu Is it the backpocket of my jeans? That gets you sayin "baby please" Or the screen door slam That makes you give a damn You only love me when I leave You only miss me when I'm gone You keep that heart under your sleeve Till I'm rollin my love, moving on You wait till I don't want you To tell me that you need me You only, love me Love me when I'm leavin' Oh, love me when I'm leavin' You don't see the lights till I'm a halfway down the road And if I'm being honest there's a reason That I'm leavin so slow You only love me when I leave You only miss me when I'm gone You keep that heart under your sleeve Till I throw your shit out on the lawn You wait till I don't want you To tell me that you need me You only, love me Love me when I'm leaving There must be something 'bout my taillights Makes it sink in
