I never thought you'd 

Leave this way 

So many things still left to say 

I only held you once I know 

It isn't much to show 

 

You made me think that things i said 

Could make a difference in the end 

But all the while you knew that we 

Would one day be right here 

 

Now i'm looking down on 

Your brown eyes 

But your eyes cannot see 

And they brushed your hair 

back off your face 

Not how it should be 

 

And your face is paler 

Than the moon 

A sight i won’t forget 

Now i'm looking down 

On your red lips 

I know i failed the test 

 

You told me you were ill at ease 

Cried in the morning, hard to please 

I never thought you’d go so far 

To stop a hurting heart  

 

I never thought you'd leave this way 

So many things still left to say 

I never thought you’d go so far 

To stop a hurting heart
