    Story Behind the Song
    This one struck me as I thought of a relationship ending and the two involved closing up the apartment and hopping on trains going in opposite directions.

    Lyrics
    You Say You’re Leaving – © Mike Zaneski 1998

    1st Verse:
    You say you’re leaving. Save some room on the train for me.
    I ain’t teasin’. Your destination is no mystery.
    Take a look around. This house is falling down.
    We go down, down, down, down ,down.

    2nd Verse:
    Smoke your cigarette. The smoke trails from your lips.
    You gave up years ago. I became a habit that you quit.
    The rain falls from the sky. I’m a simple guy.
    Who goes down, down, down, down, down.

    Chorus:
    I remember now when we first met
    You lied about your name, your age, the make of your dress
    You told it was Gucci I was unimpressed
    Now we’re stuck here in this mess

    2nd Verse:
    Look around this house. The walls to this day remain bare.
    You took the spirit out. I believe that you just don’t care.
    What I meant to say. Didn’t matter anyway
    We go down, down, down, down, down. I remember those better days.

    Chorus

    Solo

    Bridge
    Now I’m talking and it falls on deaf ears
    You’re a million miles away with not a sigh or a tear
    No lying, no crying just a void with a view
    We can’t even make up one excuse

    3rd Verse
    I’ve got a friend I know. She lives down in Washington.
    I never called her once. Now I think that I’ll look her up.
    Don’t tell me where you go. Don’t call me at night.
    We’re not in love at all. When you leave, turn off the light.
    We’re not in love at all. Lock the door, you’ll be all right.
    We’re not in love at all. No we’re not in love.
