Where did you go when I needed you here?
Left me drowning in my own fear
Why did you leave without a trace?
Now I'm haunted by your empty space
Why did you run?
You could have stayed
Why did you leave?
You could have stayed
We had it all or so it seemed
Now I'm in the shadows of our dream
You turned away when life got tough
Guess loving me wasn't enough
Why did you run?
You could have stayed
Why did you leave?
You could have stayed
We had it all or so it seemed
Now I'm in the shadows of our dream
You turned away when life got tough
Guess loving me wasn't enough
Why did you run?
You could have stayed
Why did you leave?
You could have stayed
I still think of you in the quiet night
Your face is now a fading light
Could we go back or is it too late?
I've locked the door sealed our fate
Why did you run?
You could have stayed
Why did you leave?
You could have stayed
Where did you go when I needed you here?
Left me drowning in my own fear
Why did you leave without a trace?
Now I'm haunted by your empty space
Where did you go when I needed you most?
You could have stayed
You could have stayed
You should have stayed.
