No Sadness Or Tears

You said you wanted out 
Of this marriage we are in 
You were packing your things 
And I’d never see you again 

I grabbed a beer and watched
As I sat in my reclining chair 
It did bother me you were leaving 
The truth is I no longer care

With all your arms could carry 
You loaded what belong to you 
You gave me your key then ring
Saying we’re over and through 

As I drank the last of my beer 
I watched you walk out the door 
There was no sadness or tears 
Because I didn’t love you anymore
