A Law Against Leavin’

[Verse 1]
You know your leaving took me by surprise
With my heart, you even took my pride
I tried to think of charges that I could press on you
But the police said there's nothing I can do

[Chorus]
There oughta be a law against leaving
And what you've done to me
Breaking all your promises deserves a penalty
They shouldn't show you any mercy
You oughta have to serve some time
There oughta be a law against leaving me behind

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
It's hurting me to see you going free
Wish I could lock you up and throw away the key
But the way this thing is going, you'll have no price to pay
I'm just a victim you left along the way

[Chorus]
There oughta be a law against leaving
And what you've done to me
Breaking all your promises deserves a penalty
They shouldn't show you any mercy
You oughta have to serve some time
There oughta be a law against leaving me behind

[Chorus]
There oughta be a law against leaving
And what you've done to me
Breaking all your promises deserves a penalty
They shouldn't show you any mercy
You oughta have to serve some time
There oughta be a law against leaving me behind
