| How could anyone be so cold? | |
| Could you leave a boy who loved you? | |
| Who gave you everything | |
| And wanted to be your dream? | |
| (chorus) | |
| "Abandon," she said. | |
| "Abandon," she said. | |
| Did she not believe | |
| She'd ruin my heart? | |
| "Abandon," she said. | |
| "Abandon," she said. | |
| Will I ever regain consciousness? | |
| You've never been in my shoes | |
| You never took my hand | |
| Abandoned by your love | |
| I could not stand to be lonely again | |
| Everybody's taking the elelvators with you. | |
| I'd rather take the stairs. | |
| We could be holding on. | |
| We could be moving up. | |
| And taking each other there. | |
| (chorus) x2 | |
| Have you ever been slowly torn apart? | |
| By the passionate sorrow | |
| That's bleeding from your own heart? | |
| I died that day | |
| When you walked away. | |
| I died that day, | |
| When you walked away. | |
| When you walked away. x3 | |
| (chorus) x2 |
