When I wrapped my arms around you
could you tell
that my soft smile hides
that I'm going through hell?
When I wrapped my arms around you
did you know
that you are my life raft
and I couldn't let go?
When you told me you had to go,
could you see
the vicious turmoil
that goodbye caused me?
When you surreally did go,
did you purposely
leave your taste on my lips
and your sweet scent on me?
When you did depart
did it tear you apart
the way it tore me
because you left with my heart
and you left me with yours.

When I wrapped my arms around you
could you tell
that my soft smile hides
that I'm going through hell?
When I wrapped my arms around you
did you know
that you are my life raft
and I couldn't let go?
When you told me you had to go,
could you see
the vicious turmoil
that goodbye caused me?
When you surreally did go,
did you purposely
leave your taste on my lips
and your sweet scent on me?
When you did depart
did it tear you apart
the way it tore me
because you left with my heart
and you left me with yours.
