You slipped off your wedding band
And tucked it deep inside my hand
Forced a smile and headed towards the door
And as you walked out I heard you say
Things just haven't been going our way
And I don't love you anymore
Now after the day I had
I could have done without that
I would rather watch the house we built
Burn to the ground
Then stand out in the pouring rain
Let the good lord strike me down
Then to sit here and watch you walk away
Anything would be better then your goodbye on a bad day
I've seen that look
I can always tell that means stay away from and go straight to hell
That's exactly where I'll be when you're gone
And after a day like this my whole world's gone
I would rather watch the house we built
Burn to the ground
Then stand out in the pouring rain
Let the good lord strike me down
Then to sit here and watch you walk away
Anything would be better then your goodbye on a bad day
Oooh you're the one thing I have left
When the world holds me down
Now how can I keep going when you're not around
I would rather watch the house we built
Burn to the ground
Then stand out in the pouring rain
Let the good lord strike me down
Then to sit here and have my whole world walk away
Anything would be better then your goodbye on a bad day
