Lyrics:

(Lyle Lovett)Thank you my friendI sincerely appreciate the words you sayAbout how she'll cryAnd how she'll grieve and miss meWhen she goes awaySay them againI need to hear the words once moreI can't believeHow she'll miss me when she's goneAnd how she'll want to come back homeAnd never leaveBut she's leaving meBecause she really wants toAnd she'll be happy when she's goneShe'll be happyShe'll be so very happyShe'll dance and singOr even learn to flyAnd spend her time with anyone but meWhat's that you sayThat I'll get over her the more that time goes byBut time goes so slowWhen all I have to do is sit around and cryNo she won't be backI'd be a fool to try to fool myself that wayI know she hasn't one regretBecause she hasn't had one sinceThe day she came to stayShe's leaving meBecause she really wants toAnd she'll be happy when she's goneShe'll be happyShe'll be so very happyShe'll dance and singAnd even learn to flyAnd spend her time with anyone but meShe'll be happy when she's goneShe'll be happy when she's goneShe'll be happy when she's goneShe'll be happy when she's gone
