Leave Lyrics
I won't wait forever
Is all that you said
Before you stood up
And you won't disappoint me
I can do that myself
But I'm glad that you've come
And if you don't mind
Leave, leave
And please yourself at the same time
Leave, leave
I don't understand
You've already gone
And I hope you feel better
Now that it's out
What took you so long?
And the truth has a habit
Of falling out of your mouth
But now that it's come
If you don't mind
Leave, leave
And free yourself at the same time
Leave, leave
Let go of my hand
You said what you had to
Leave, leave
Let go of my hand
You said what you came to
So leave, leave
Oh leave, leave
Let go of my hand
You said what you had to
Now leave, leave...
Is all that you said
Before you stood up
I can do that myself
But I'm glad that you've come
Leave, leave
And please yourself at the same time
Leave, leave
I don't understand
You've already gone
Now that it's out
What took you so long?
Of falling out of your mouth
But now that it's come
Leave, leave
And free yourself at the same time
Leave, leave
Let go of my hand
You said what you had to
Let go of my hand
You said what you came to
So leave, leave
Let go of my hand
You said what you had to
Now leave, leave...

This is A Swell Season song.
What I get out of this is that the woman is waiting on some kind of commitment, perhaps marriage and has been completely closed off to the man and he's obviously not ready and is convinced she'd be better off without him.
Then on the other hand it looks as though she's finally fessed up to perhaps cheating on him, and is waiting for him to make a decision as to what happens in the relationship and he refuses to decide, so he says she just has to leave.
