These lyrics are a response song to a song called "You Don't Live Here Anymore" by Rachel Siegel. I have posted the link below. Please watch her video first if you're able to, as I modeled the lyrics after the melody used for the song.

I remember that corner like it was yesterday
We told all our secrets and shared our pain
I cried many times on your shoulder
and I prayed we'd never change.
But as time went on I realized I had to leave
Cause like all good things, I didn't believe
We could hold tight, not let go, and come out of this unscathed.
I finally know why my leaving made you feel so alone
like the air around you had frozen
Now I know it doesn't matter to you, babe
Because I left you once before
One day I saw you across the store
Tried calling your name, but you turned to the door
I thought I'd try to make things right
But there are things I can't explain.
I finally know why my leaving made you feel so alone
like the air around you had frozen
Now I know it doesn't matter to you, babe
Because I left you once before
I wish you knew how I'd felt inside
How much I wanted to be stronger
If there's a chance you'll have me back,
I promise you I'll stay much longer.
I wish you knew how I'd felt inside
How much I wanted to be stronger
If there's a chance you'll have me back,
I promise you I'll stay much longer.
I wish you knew how I'd felt inside
How much I wanted to be stronger
If there's a chance you'll have me back,
I promise you I'll stay much longer.
I wish you knew how I'd felt inside
How much I wanted to be stronger
If there's a chance you'll have me back,
I promise you I'll stay much
I finally know why my leaving made you feel so alone
like the air around you had frozen
Now I know it doesn't matter to you, babe
Because I left you once before
I finally know why my leaving made you feel so alone
like the air around you had frozen
Now I know it might not matter to you, babe
But I want to be with you once more.
