Leaving Me Was The Best Thing You've Ever Done

(Scherrie Payne)

[TOGETHER:]
The years I spent with you
I could write a sermonette
And tell of all the pain
You gave since we met
I felt just like a child
When she's done something bad
Afraid to face the truth
'Cause she knows that mama's mad

[SCHERRIE:]
But I wasn't strong enough
Fools are never wise

[SUSAYE:]
You left me, it turned out to be

[TOGETHER:]
A blessing in disguise
Leaving me was the best
Thing you've ever done
In my heart I know I lost
In my mind I know I won

[SCHERRIE:]
Though I still hurt inside
I got back my pride

[TOGETHER:]
Huhhhhhhhhhh, I used to sit around
Feeling sorry for myself
Convinced that after you

[SCHERRIE:]
There could be

[TOGETHER:]
There could be no one else

[SCHERRIE:]
And I've torn down the walls, baby

[SUSAYE:]
And I'm laughing, laughing like a clown

[SCHERRIE:]
I'm drunk on wine and tears

[TOGETHER:]
I'm celebration bound

[SCHERRIE:]
Why, oh why, am I still crying

[SUSAYE:]
When God knows and I know

[TOGETHER:]
There's no denying (there's no denying)
Leaving me was the best
Thing you've ever done
In my heart I know I lost
In my mind I know I have won

[SCHERRIE:]
Love was misunderstood
It's more than just feeling good

[TOGETHER:]
Huhhhhhhhhhh, You left me here without a hope
And you thought I would never cope, now baby
You laughed and took back your heart
And you thought I would fall apart, now honey

Baby
Now honey

You left me here without a hope
And you thought I would never cope, now baby
You laughed and took back your heart
And you thought I would fall apart, now honey

You left me here without a hope
And you thought I would never cope, now baby
You laughed and took back your heart
And you thought I would fall apart, now honey

You left me here without a hope
And you thought I would never cope, now baby
You laughed and took back your heart
And you thought I would fall apart, now honey

Why, oh why,

[SUSAYE:]
Am I still crying

[SCHERRIE:]
When God knows and I know
There's, there's no denying (there's no denying)

[TOGEHTER:]
Leaving me was the best (Leaving me, leaving me, leaving me)
Thing you've ever done (Thank you, baby)
In my heart I know I lost (You've done me a favor)
In my mind I know I have won (I really won)

Leaving me was the best (Leaving me, leaving me, leaving me)
Thing you've ever done (Thank you, baby)
In my heart I know I lost (Thank you, baby)
In my mind I know I have won (I really won)

Leaving me was the best
Thing you've ever done (Leaving me, leaving me, leaving me)
In my heart I know I lost
In my mind I know I have won (I really won)

Mirror lyrics:

In my mind I know I have won (I really won)
In my heart I know I lost
Thing you've ever done (Leaving me, leaving me, leaving me)
Leaving me was the best

In my mind I know I have won (I really won)
In my heart I know I lost (Thank you, baby)
Thing you've ever done (Thank you, baby)
Leaving me was the best (Leaving me, leaving me, leaving me)

In my mind I know I have won (I really won)
In my heart I know I lost (You've done me a favor)
Thing you've ever done (Thank you, baby)
Leaving me was the best (Leaving me, leaving me, leaving me)
[TOGEHTER:]

There's, there's no denying (there's no denying)
When God knows and I know
[SCHERRIE:]

Am I still crying
[SUSAYE:]

Why, oh why,

And you thought I would fall apart, now honey
You laughed and took back your heart
And you thought I would never cope, now baby
You left me here without a hope

And you thought I would fall apart, now honey
You laughed and took back your heart
And you thought I would never cope, now baby
You left me here without a hope

And you thought I would fall apart, now honey
You laughed and took back your heart
And you thought I would never cope, now baby
You left me here without a hope

Now honey
Baby

And you thought I would fall apart, now honey
You laughed and took back your heart
And you thought I would never cope, now baby
Huhhhhhhhhhh, You left me here without a hope
[TOGETHER:]

It's more than just feeling good
Love was misunderstood
[SCHERRIE:]

In my mind I know I have won
In my heart I know I lost
Thing you've ever done
Leaving me was the best
There's no denying (there's no denying)
