A women's only good as her word
I said I'd leave long ago
Well I'm still here and I'm still waiting
And I'm still learning to say "No!"
I've given him my self-respect
I've given him my self-esteem
I've given up the fantasy
That he loves me more than it may seem
It's time to cut my ties (these are all that hold me)
Time to Hit The Ground Running (time to Hit The Ground Running)
I see it in his eyes (leave before he scolds me)
I think it's sad, he thinks it's funny
Better get out now
Better Hit The Ground Running
He only wants the things he feels
And feelin' good is all he knows
Must be nice to live that way
Let's see what happens when I go
I gave him all the love I had
He drained ev'ry drop to fill his soul
Now I'm gone and he's still shallow
As for me, my life is full!
It's time to cut my ties (these are all that hold me)
Time to Hit The Ground Running (time to Hit The Ground Running)
I see it in his eyes (leave before he scolds me)
I think it's sad, he thinks it's funny
Better get out now
Better Hit The Ground Running
You tell me not to go
I try to get away
It's much too late to show
You'll stop your evil ways
It's time to cut my ties (these are all that hold me)
Time to Hit The Ground Running (time to Hit The Ground Running)
I see it in his eyes (leave before he scolds me)
I think it's sad, he thinks it's funny
Better get out now
Better Hit The Ground Running
