Another day, another teardrop fallin' from my rooftop
And even the look upon the city's face says leave
Another summer, another year gone
Another love that didn't last from now on

My girl told me yesterday, I better leave, guess I better leave
Climbed upon a mountain high and I looked out and saw the valley
Then I turned and told this old city goodbye
I'm leavin' and I ain't grievin', I'm leavin', I ain't grievin'

Don't know where I'm goin', don't know how to begin
All I know is I'm goin', watch a leaf fallin' from a tree
To see which way the wind was blowin'

Another day, another teardrop fallin' from my rooftop
And even the look upon the city's face says leave
I'm leavin', I ain't grievin', I'm leavin', I'm grievin'
