she leaves alone
and though she's stuck on yesterday
she doesn't know
what lies ahead
she's on the phone
all settled in
but all alone
she misses home, she's all alone

and as for me
i didn't know all those times i walked you home so late at night
and as for me
i didn't know, God i wish you would have just slept here that night

another day
what's going on?
she moves ahead, she pushes on
the day was long but now it's over and something's wrong
there's no more time, there's no more why
there's no more "i don't care about being left alone with you or being left to blame."

and as for me
i didn't know all those times i walked you home so late at night
and as for me
i didn't know, God i wish you would have just slept here that night

then you realize you're only seventeen and still falling
how could this be?
and it's been such a long time since you've been lonely
and now it's the only thing you feel

i didn't know all those times i walked you home so late at night
and as for me
i didn't know, God i wish you would have just slept here that night
