[English]

I can't wait til' you're gone away

'Cause then I

Can move on

I can't wait til' you're gone away

'Cause then I

Can move on

Then I can say I'm finally over you

I'm, I'm finally over you

I can't wait til' you're gone away

'Cause then I

Can move on

Can't wait til' you are gone

You say that you are no longer in love with me

And uh, you can not be

The one for me

Told me that this love of ours

Is taking us down different roads

And its caused us to grow

Apart and so

Girl don't say to me

That you want to be

Be good friends with me

That's just teasing me

Girl it's best you leave now

Say goodbye to me

Cause you should know girl that I

I can't wait til' you're gone away

'Cause then I

Can move on

I can't wait til' you're gone away

'Cause then I

Can move on

Then I can say I'm finally over you

I'm, I'm finally over you

I can't wait til' you're gone away

'Cause then I

Can move on

Can't wait til' you are gone

(Put a break in it) I just need you to leave me baby

That way I could move on ya feel me

I just need you to leave me baby

That way I could move on ya feel me

That way I could move on

Then I can say I'm finally over you

I'm, I'm finally over you

I can't wait til you're gone away

'Cause then I

Can move on

Can't wait til' you are gone
