Lyrics

I guess i figured out

I have come to understand

That something was wrong

That something in our relationship was not right

And that things have changed

Recognizing that things have undergone a change

Cause girl i sit by the phone

I sit by the phone

And i wait for your call

Waiting for your call

But the phone never rings

The anticipated call never comes

So i picked up the phone and called you at home

I call you at home

You're on the other line,

You're on another call

I wanna talk to you maybe

I want to talk to you and maybe see you

Even see you, you say you have no time

You claim you have no time


You started doing things that

You started behaving differently

You never did before, how could

Actions that were never present before

Something so right turn out to be

Expressing disappointment that something initially right turned out wrong

Something so wrong

Reflecting on the unexpected negative turn


You thought the grass was greener

Believing that opportunities elsewhere were better

You thought the well had water

Assuming there was something better available

You thought that you could find a

Thinking that love could be found in another place

Love another place

Questioning the decision to leave a good relationship

So how could you leave this good thing


We use to take long walks

Recalling the past when we used to take long walks

And have long, long talks

Remembering extended conversations

On the telephone

Highlighting moments of connection on the telephone

You use to hold my hand in the

Reference to physical closeness in the shopping mall

Shopping mall, i felt i was your own,

Feeling a sense of belonging

We stopped going out as much

Noticing a decline in going out together

I started feeling all alone

Feeling a growing sense of loneliness

Girl you stopped telling me you loved me

You stopped expressing love and care

Saying that you cared

No longer hearing words of affection

But i still carried on

Continuing despite the challenges


I thought we could work things out

Hopeful about resolving issues

But i just don't understand why

Unable to comprehend the reason for departure

How could you leave someone patient

Expressing confusion about being left for something wrong

Like me for something so wrong


Even though you, broke my heart in two

Emphasizing the emotional pain caused by the departure

I was just hanging on, trying to do what

Attempting to do what is right while the other has left

Was right and you were already gone

Awareness of the partner already being gone


When love came you went away

Reflecting on the departure when love arrived

And if i see you again

If encountering again, questioning the decision to leave

Girl i would ask you how could you

Expressing confusion about leaving a good thing

Leave this good thing
