No matter what you try to say,
You shoulda treated me a better way
Now I'm finished, thought I'd let you go
You're sayin' nothin' that I want to know
No matter what you try to tell me,
I'm not listening to you anymore
'Cause pack your bags, I'm settin' you free
Then start walkin' out of the door
[Chorus]
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Our love, it died like metal to rust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
I've tried and I've tried, but I'm dyin' inside
I've tried and I've tried, but I lost all my pride
I've tried and I've tried, but I lost all my trust
Close the door behind you goin' out
Because you're leavin' now, so have no doubt
It took some time, but finally in the end,
Your cheatin' ways, they drove me round the bend
The day is here when I put you behind
I'm so tired of listen' to lies
I've learned to put you out of my mind
No holdin' on to our love when it died
[Chorus]
Sit down and write yourself a letter
You know it might make you feel a little better
I won't accept any apology
I'm glad it's over now, I'm happy and free
No matter what you try to tell me,
I'm not listening to you anymore
'Cause pack your bags, I'm settin' you free
Then start walkin' out of the door
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Our love, it died like metal to rust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Our love, it died like metal to rust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Our love, it died like metal to rust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
