Bill Anderson - It Was Time For Me To Move On Anyway lyrics

You slipped in and really caught me by surprice

When you told me you were leaving me today

You say you've found another you love better

Well it was time for me to move on anyway.

I've already loved you longer than I meant to

And I'd've had to tell you so someday

All you've done is help to make it easy

It was time for me to move on anyway.

Thanks for the shelter and the coffee

And the softest lips I've ever kissed

Which one will I miss the most, I can't say

Thanks for the shoulder that I cried on

And relied on you're takin' it away

But that's okay, it was time for me to move on anyway.

We've had lots of fun just living life together

Fun but in a deeper kind of way

I guess it's really best that you'll be leaving

'Cause it was time for me to move on anyway.

I just hate to leave a woman standin' cryin'

And I've loved a few and left 'em in my day

I just never heard the door slam from the inside

It was time for me to move on anyway.

Thanks for the shelter and the coffee

And the softest lips I've ever kissed

Which one will I miss the most, I can't say

Thanks for the shoulder that I cried on

And relied on you're takin' it away

But that's okay, it was time for me to move on anyway...
