|
It's not so much that you left |
|
It's that you didn't come back |
|
It's not the pain that you felt |
|
But the obvious lack |
|
I was always a step behind |
|
I was always a step behind |
|
It wasn't watching you go |
|
But the way that you went |
|
With a kiss on the cheek |
|
And a cheque for the rent |
|
I was always a step behind |
|
I was always a step behind |
|
It wasn't really your fault |
|
Because you made it mine too |
|
While you were looking around |
|
I was looking at you |
|
I was always a step behind |
|
I was always a step behind |
|
And I hope you remember when it comes around |
|
The gentle release of letting me down |
|
And the way that it felt |
|
To be high on yourself |
|
Blindly running into the new |
|
I haven't re-learned to walk |
|
It's hard to learn that |
|
And it wasn't the fall |
|
It was the push in the back |
|
I was always a step behind |
|
I was always a step behind |
|
I didn't see it coming up from behind |
|
I was always a step behind |
