lyrics

I went away for to pretend you didn't leave. It didn't work. Now here I am knowing you left me.
So here I am, here I am, please don't cry. Here I am, here I am. Where am I?
You were so sweet when you took me into your home. I played for you, and sang to you every song I know. And Summer waited at the window where we slept, just making sure that we were peaceful in the bed.
So where'd you go? Here I am, please don't cry. Here I am, here I am. Where am I?
I went away just to ensure that you would see. It didn't work. Or was I testing you? Or did you test me? I thought I was smart, I thought I was right. I thought I'd be just fine, 'cause I didn't know, could not divine, I wouldn't stand the test of time. So where am I now?
I went away, telling myself I'd find you there. But you are gone, and I'm gone too. I don't know where.
