Written By Ronny Scaife And Rory Michael Bourke
Lying all alone in this midnight blue
With nothing but these memories of you
Staring at these walls that are closing in
Wondering if youre ever coming back again.
Now Im just a prisoner in this big old bed
Living with the things that I shouldve said
Why is it always after someones gone
That you begin to see where you went wrong.
Chorus
I couldnt see you leaving, but I can see youre gone
That note you left on my pillow said I was on my own
I never heard you crying, cause I was seldom home
I couldnt see you leaving, but I can see youre gone.
— Instrumental —
I just keep wondering where you are tonight
And if someone else is holding you tight
It took you walking out the door to see
That Im really nothing when youre not with me.
I did a good job of fooling myself
Thinking that youre love would stay on the shelf
But how could anybody be so blind
To have to wake up alone and find.
Chorus
I couldnt see you leaving, but I can see youre gone
That note you left on my pillow said I was on my own
I never heard you crying, cause I was seldom home
I couldnt see you leaving, but I can see youre gone.
I couldnt see you leaving, but I can see youre gone…
