[Verse 1]
Sail on down the road
'Bout a half a mile or so
And I tried to make you stay
But now you're going
It was plain to see
That a small town boy like me
Just wasn't your cup of tea
That was wishful thinking
[Chorus]
I gave you my heart and I tried to make you happy
You gave me nothing in return
You know it ain't so hard to say
"Would you please just go away?"
[Verse 2]
You come to comfort me
But I don't need your sympathy
And the way you look at me
Well it's condescending
I feel my stomach churn
And didn't you ever learn
Not to tell someone something
If you don't mean it
[Chorus]
I gave you my heart and I tried to make you happy
You gave me nothing in return
You know it ain't so hard to say
"Would you please just go away?"
[Outro]
Sail on
