I guess I figured out

That something was wrong

And that things have changed

Cause girl I sit by the phone

And I wait for your call

But the phone never rings

So I picked up the phone and called you at home

You're on the other line

I wanna talk to you maybe

Even see you you say you have no time

You started doing things that

You never did before

How could something so right turn out to be

Something so wrong

You thought the grass was greener

You thought the well had water

You thought that you could find a

Love another place

So how could you leave this good thing

We use to take long walks

And have long long talks

On the telephone

You use to hold my hand in the

Shopping mall I felt I was your own

We stopped going out as much

I started feeling all alone

Girl you stopped telling me you loved me

Saying that you cared

But I still carried on

I thought we could work things out

But I just don't understand why

How could you leave someone patient

Like me for something so wrong

You thought the grass was greener

You thought the well had water

You thought that you could find a

Love another place

So how could you leave this good thing

Even though you broke my heart in two

I was just hanging on

Trying to do what was right and you were already gone

You thought the grass was greener

You thought the well had water

You thought that you could find a

Love another place

So how could you leave

When love came you went away

And if I see you again

Girl I would ask you how could you leave

How could you how could you leave me baby

When love came you went away

And if I see you again

Girl I would ask you how could you leave

This good thing
