I see it in your eyes
You look so surprised
Two blue flames burning up with love
You finally met your match
No more holding back
Well I been waiting for this day to come
If I had only known

[Chorus]
You like me better when I´m leaving
Like me better when I´m going
Like me better unavailable
You like me better when I´m ticked off
Ripped up, engines on and I´m slamming out the door
Took some time to figure out
But I finally get it now
You like me better when I´m leaving

The minute that I storm out
You say you´re reformed now
Baby it´s high time you seek some help
Now we´re on the couch
To pull those demons out
And own up to how you sabotage yourself
Cause I know you love me but

[Repeat Chorus]

I thought I was unlovable
I thought it was all my fault
I was oblivious to your twisted logic
But now I´ve got it

[Chorus]
You like me better when I´m leaving
Like me better when I´m going
Like me better unavailable
You like me better when I´m ticked off
Ripped up, engines on and I´m slamming out the door
You like me better when I´m leaving
Like me better when I´m going
Like me better unavailable
You like me better when I´m ticked off
Ripped up, engines on and I´m slamming out the door
Took some time to figure out
But I finally get it now
You like me better when I´m leaving yeah
