Joel Plaskett Emergency - The Day You Walked Away lyrics

The day you walked away I didn't see it coming You blew the doors wide open and everybody ran The day you walked away Fluorescent lights were humming Everybody knows Does everybody know the truth? When I opened up my eyes It wasn't any use I can see now What I didn't before You loved me then but you don't anymore The day you walked away It was like nothing really mattered Your ruby lips were moving and they could say no wrong My friends and family say "Young man you should be flattered By the plain and simple fact that she hung around so long" Everybody knows Does everybody know but me? When I opened up my eyes I wasn't looking for sympathy I can see now What I didn't before You loved me then but you don't anymore
