Maybe it was irrational of me
Or maybe you just couldn't see
That I didn't want to be
Around you, baby

Falling, wasn't it so obvious?
You were busy being jealous
But you didn't come for me
It was all just a daydream

Unpainted skies, doesn't it make you feel right?
What are you all about? what would you think of me now?
But you didn't even care about me

Maybe I asked for too much
Or maybe I didn't understand
Maybe it was all your fault
Or maybe it was all under-planned
When you left me all alone
And never promised that you'd come back
If only you knew how much
You made me feel helpless

Ah, when you left me
Ah, when you left me

Looking back now I seemed so obsessed
But how could you have guessed?
I just wanted it to last
It all went by too fast

Far, it was wrong from my part
But you wouldn't break my heart, right?
I'm over it by now
It's all in the past now

Charcoal skies, you ask "are you feeling alright? "
What are you all about? what would you think of me now?
But you didn't even care about me

Maybe I asked for too much
Or maybe I didn't understand
Maybe it was all your fault
Or maybe it was all under-planned
When you left me all alone
And never promised that you'd come back
If only you knew how much
You made me feel helpless

Ah, when you left me
Ah, when you left me

Say my name just do delude me
Like all those other times when you left me
Splattered, dying on the ground
With thoughts that haunt me in my sleep

Lonely leaves in the backyard
Vivid moments painted in my mind
Should have seen the stop signs
I almost regret meeting you that night

Ah, when you left me
Ah, when you left me
Ah, when you left me
Ah, when you left me
