How Could You Leave Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I guess I figured out
That something was wrong
And that things had changed
Cause girl I sit by the phone
And I wait for your call
But the phone never rings

So I picked up the phone and I called you at home
You're on the other line,
I wanna talk to you
Maybe even see you,
You say you have no time

You started doing things that you never did before
How could something so right turn out to be something so wrong

[Chorus]
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing

[Verse 2]
We used to take long walks
And have long, long talks
On the telephone
You used to hold my hand in the shopping mall, I felt I was your all,
We stopped going out as much

I started feeling all alone
Girl you stopped telling me you loved me
Saying that you cared
But I still carried on

I thought we could work things out
But I just don't understand why
How could you leave someone patient like me
For something so wrong

[Chorus]
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave baby

[Verse 3]
Even though you, broke my heart in two
I was just hanging on, trying to do what was right
You were already gone

[Chorus X 2]
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave

[Verse 4 X 2]
When love came you went away
And if I see you again
Girl I would ask you
How could you leave
Leave this good thing
