i’m sorry i just couldn’t lift my eyes to meet yours as you left

all i could do was pray you’d feel regret

and come back to me when you had nothing left

oh come back to me when you have nothing left

 

well i know that you were never mine to lose

but i felt that dagger twisting in the wound

it was there before you, it was nothing new

oh it was there before, but you made it new

 

i thought that after all that’d come before

it’d laid the path for you

but if you’d loved me then what would you not do

​

well i should’ve known that it could not be true

oh i should’ve known that you could not be true

don’t expect me to be waiting here for you
