Best "leaving songs" ever (with or without tears)

More like a "won't leave" song...

This could be the ultimate bitter breakup song:
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZ8GUQJAsLk]Linda Ronstadt - Long, Long Time - YouTube[/ame]



Love will abide
take things in stride
Sounds like good advice but there's no one at my side
And time washes clean
love's wounds unseen
That's what someone told me but I don't know what it means

'Cause I've done everything I know
to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time

Caught in my fears
Blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me when you never let me near
And I never drew
one response from you
All the while you fell all over girls you never knew
Cause I've done everything I know
to try and make you mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me for a long long time

Wait for the day
You'll go away
Knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of flaws
Who knows the cause?
Living in the memory of a love that never was
'Cause I've done everything I know to try and change your mind
And I think I'm gonna miss you for a long long time

My Worst Fear ~ Rascal Flatts
 
A good break-up song?

Beats me, something loud enough to hear over all the screaming would be my choice, I guess.

How about this one?
