Left
You left me
And all I could do
Was watch you leave
I stood at the door
And watched you go
Wishing you well
While silently begging you to stay
And while you were gone 
I kept the home fires burning
Day after day
Night after night
I waited for you to return

And I waited...
          And I waited...
                    And I waited...

Until the waiting stopped 
In the terrible realization
That you’re actually gone
You’re never coming back
And now I’m the only one
Left
