The Least That You Can Do

If its really over and theres nothing I can say
Ill do my best to hide the pain and turn and walk away

But do me one last favor, and pretend youre hurting too

After all weve been through, its the least that you can do.

I dont know any reason we should let the whole town know

Which one of us came up with this plan for letting go

Try to leave me just a little pride to get me through

After all I gave you its the least that you can do

When you run into our old friends
Could you ask them how Ive been

And maybe even muster up a teardrop now and then

If they ask you how youre doing
Whats it really gonna hurt

To tell a little lie and do your best to look your worst

Keep my old love letters in the closet down the hall

And leave at least one picture of me somewhere on the wall

Could your do your best impression of a sentimental fool

After all, it seems like its the least that you can do

Oh I know it wont be long, til someone else is loving you

And waking up in your arms just the way that I used to

Promise me at least one time youll call him by my name

And when Im with somebody new, Ill try to do the same

If someone ever asks you why we went our separate ways

We were just too much in love might be the thing to say

Or maybe you could tell em I was just too good for you

After all I gave you its the least that you can do

If the shoe were on the other foot, Id do the same for you

Hey, after all weve been through its the least that you can do
