It just keeps shuffling!

Can anyone explain to me why Spotify seems to continue operating in the background after I "exit" out of the app?

 

If i pause a song and leave the app, and then come back later to resume listening to that song, a new song is playing and is already in progress (not just a new song from the beginning).

 

This is really frustrating!!

 

Thanks!
