Lyrics

Verse 1

You told me that you cared

Told me it was real

Didn't mean to catch my eye

Didn't mean to steal

All my love away

Verse 2

I should have seen the signs

The way you used her name

How could I believe the lies?

We were just the same

You were just a game

Pre-Chorus

You said you were over her

Guess I was just a placeholder

Now I'm just a little older

And much more lonely

Chorus

You left

Back to your ex

Left me here to cry myself to sleep

Left my heart in pieces on the floor

You know I can't take it anymore

You left

Back to your ex

She's the one you love

She was never really gone

I was just a stopalong

Verse 3

She left you years ago

I thought you were free

Said you'd never end up like

She did, next to me

You're so full of glee

Verse 4

As you pack your bags

And walk out the door

Tell me, did you ever love?

Or was I just a chore?

Just a bore

Pre-Chorus

You said she didn't matter

Guess my heart was just collateral

You were only ever half of all there

And now I'm lonely

Chorus

You left

Back to your ex

Left me here to cry myself to sleep

Left my heart in pieces on the floor

You know I can't take it anymore

You left

Back to your ex

She's the one you love

She was never really gone

I was just a stopalong

Bridge

How could you be so blind?

How could you waste my time?

How could you say the things you said?

I'm hanging by a thread

What was I supposed to do?

I fell in love with you

I wish I'd never met that man

I guess I never had a chance

Chorus

You left

Back to your ex

Left me here to cry myself to sleep

Left my heart in pieces on the floor

You know I can't take it anymore

You left

Back to your ex

She's the one you love

She was never really gone

I was just a stopalong

Outro

You left

Back to your ex

She's the one you love

I was just a stopalong
