"No Good Way To Go" lyrics

"No Good Way To Go"

Early in the morning while he's still asleep
I could pack a few things, quiet and neat
Call a limo to pick me up outside
And start my new life in a comfortable ride

On the other hand, I could sit down with him
Tell him why, and what it is I'm missing
Put it all on the table, so nobody's guessing
He might even offer his blessing

Or maybe I ought to just ease out slow
A little here, a little there, you know?
He could watch it develop like a Polaroid shot
I don't know, maybe not

There's no good way to go
No, there's no
No good way to go

It's one of those no-win situations
Anger don't work, neither does patience
How much is too much, and what's not enough
I'm sorry, it's complicated stuff

There's no good way to go
No, there's no
No good way to go

There's nowhere to hide
Somebody's gonna have a wounded pride
Nobody's gonna be satisfied
All I know is I can't stay
It's time to go and there's no good way

Professional help, maybe that's it
I'll learn to let go, get a grip
But you know what they want?
How much an hour?
I think I'll take it to a higher power

There's no good way to go
No, there's no
No good way to go

Every in the morning while he's still asleep
I could pack a few things, quiet and neat

There's no good, no good way to go
Maybe I ought to just ease out slow
No good way to go
There's just no good way to go
