Say hi to the kids for me

After packing her suitcase
and taking a peek in the kids' room
she shuts the front door quietly, doesn't want to wake up anyone
 
Does it take courage? A large amount of bitterness anyway
to leave her husband and the children
and live a life of her own
 
And now that I leave at last
I do it for the sake of my heart
though it still pains me greatly
 
Your dear little missus
isn't coming back
I left the keys on the table with a letter
say hi to the kids for me
 
She leaves although doing so
her heart aches
The most important thing is to leave
she remembers hearing someone say
 
Standing under the express sign at the buss station
she wipes away a tear from the corner of her eye
without actually noticing
 
And now that I leave at last
I do it for the sake of my heart
though it still pains me greatly
 
Your dear little missus
isn't coming back
I left the keys on the table with a letter
say hi to the kids for me

Shit, when a Finn writes a country song, it's hurtfulness and sadness is a thousand times of any American one.
