Yesterday I thought I was the luckiest around

Little did I know that you were gonna take me down

A thousand tears won't wash away the pain

The more I think of you just leaves me hanging' round again

Got to find a way to keep a hold onto my pride

'Cause I know that even when you left you took my side

And the love you feel for me will always be

But you had to go get out on your own

Take a look at the world you don't see

When you walked out on me

No you never skipped a beat Like a butterfly I see you're free

And a tear rolled down your cheek

As you waved goodbye to me

But you kept on walking never skipped a beat

Sometime I'll get used to spending my nights here on my own

Then I'll have to learn to greet the morning all alone

Yesterdays we shared are like a dream

At night I reach out for you baby and wonder what might have been

I tell myself

We'll try again another time and place

Everywhere I look I always see your face yea

We know this was never meant to be

So you had to go just get out on your own Girl without me

You never skipped a beat

When you walked out on me

Like a butterfly I see you're free

Then a tear rolls down your cheek

And I knew it had to be

When you waved goodbye and walked away from me

You never skipped a beat when you walked out on me

Like a butterfly I see you're free

Then a tear rolls down your cheek

And you waved goodbye to me

But you kept on walking never skipped a beat

You never skipped a beat when you walked out on me

Like a butterfly I see you're free

When you waved goodbye and walked away from me
