I have a hard time believing our freedom loving forefathers would have agreed to enter into a union that they couldn't leave especially after they had just fought for their freedom.

Yet they signed up to the "Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union Between the States..."

I think the power to leave could be covered under this provision.

Hard to reserve or cover a power you don't have.
