[00:20.85]I guess I figured out
[00:23.09]That something was wrong
[00:25.34]And that things have changed
[00:29.28]Cause girl I sit by the phone
[00:32.03]And I wait for your call
[00:34.20]But the phone never rings
[00:38.07]
[00:38.69]So I picked up the phone and called you at home
[00:43.62]You're on the other line,
[00:46.99]I wanna talk to you maybe
[00:50.62]Even see you, you say you have no time
[00:56.62]
[00:57.81]You started doing things that
[01:01.48]You never did before,
[01:06.41]
[01:07.66]How could something so right turn out to be
[01:12.59]Something so wrong
[01:14.84]
[01:16.40]You thought the grass was greener
[01:19.39]
[01:20.83]You thought the well had water
[01:23.32]
[01:24.89]You thought that you could find a
[01:28.70]Love another place
[01:32.12]So how could you leave this good thing
[01:44.12]
[01:52.10]We use to take long walks
[01:54.50]And have long, long talks
[01:56.81]On the telephone
[02:00.18]
[02:00.80]You use to hold my hand in the
[02:03.99]Shopping mall, I felt I was your own,
[02:08.84]
[02:09.84]We stopped going out as much
[02:13.90]I started feeling all alone
[02:17.25]
[02:18.62]Girl you stopped telling me you loved me
[02:21.62]Saying that you cared
[02:23.19]But I still carried on
[02:26.21]
[02:28.97]I thought we could work things out
[02:32.08]But I just don't understand why
[02:36.94]
[02:39.57]How could you leave someone patient
[02:42.75]Like me for something so wrong
[02:47.80]You thought the grass was greener
[02:50.61]
[02:51.99]You thought the well had water
[02:54.74]
[02:56.05]You thought that you could find a
[02:59.62]Love another place
[03:02.43]
[03:03.18]So how could you leave this good thing
[03:11.08]
[03:11.72]Even though you, broke my heart in two
[03:17.63]
[03:18.88]I was just hanging on,
[03:21.50]Trying to do what  was right and you were already gone
[03:26.25]
[03:27.80]You thought the grass was greener
[03:30.52]
[03:31.70]You thought the well had water
[03:34.89]
[03:36.46]You thought that you could find a
[03:39.44]Love another place
[03:42.54]
[03:43.90]So how could you leave
[03:50.15]
[04:14.18]When love came you went away
[04:17.92]
