I can’t, I can’t make love to your memory
I can’t put my arms, around what used to be
Everything I had, was apart of me
Well you went and it walked out that front door with you

My friends tell me, it’ll be alright
But my friends never, no, never held you close at night
Every dream I had, that could see the light
Well you went and it walked out the front door with you
Well you went and it walked out that front door with you

I never knew, I never thought that you’d take my love and tear it apart
I gave you my best, when I gave you my heart
Oh, are you listening? Or is this all in vain? yeah…
I still can’t believe, you’re never comin’ back again

Everything I had, oh, except my pain
Well you went and it walked out the front door with you
Well you went and it walked out that front door with you… hey… yeah…
Well you went and it walked… well you went and it walked…
Right out the front door with you
Well you went and it walked right out
Never comin’ back no more
Right out
