When you were lying in my bed and your song was in my head
I didn't realize what this meant
Then you cried over the phone, said you'd never felt alone
How could I ever have known?
So I left you on the benches, fending for yourself
You were fighting in the trenches, I was thinking of myself
I hope one day you'll forgive me and I realize what it cost
When I left you on your own, when you needed me most
I thought I needed you more than you could have ever needed me
So I didn't even try
And I left without note, taking with me what I wrote
As I walked under moonlight
