lyrics

He left his mark all over me
On my skin and on my sheets
The marks will fade as time goes by
But his memory will never die

He played the part so perfectly
I never thought he'd ever leave
But just like that, he said goodbye
And left me here to wonder why

Why wasn't it me? Why couldn't I be the one he wants?
Why didn't he stay? Why'd he say goodbye after just two months?
He made me think he really cared
And now his ghost is everywhere

I thought he was everything
Everything I'd ever dreamed
But I woke up to reality
And I found out he never wanted me

Why wasn't it me? Why couldn't I be the one he wants?
Why didn't he stay? Why'd he say goodbye after just two months?
He made me think he really cared
And now his ghost is everywhere

I can't escape, his voice, his touch, his face
Why couldn't he stay?

He left his mark all over me
On my skin and on my sheets
The marks will fade as time goes by
He'll move on, and so will I
