Melissa Ferrick - When you left

I never asked for answer Only a fair shot At what I thought was expected From the heart Yeah you told me you had one Do you remember that And you told me that I was worth it Was it easy to forget that 'Cause I don't forget anything 'N it scares me half to death I remember the color of the doorknob That you used Baby when you left When you left You left me half full Half full of emptiness All bothered and bloodshot Putting my hand to my head And you smelled like denial And my beer tasted like chalk But I could hear the sound of your footsteps Like a ticking pocket watch 'Cause I don't forget anything 'N it scares me half to death I remember the color of the doorknob That you used Baby when you left When you left And you know that I never asked for love only a friend 'N what I got was some kind of twisted figure of myself again 'N I know that they say you should see yourself in your lover's eyes But I can see my soul baby And it makes me want to die So now is not the time To ask me to play 'Cause I can't seem to hold on To any given day So please just let me stand here And sing this song 'Cause it's the only thing you ever gave me And without it I would drown 'Cause I don't forget anything 'N it scares me half to death I remember the color of the doorknob That you used Baby when you left When you left When you left
