The Vacantry - Once Lovers Lyrics

All this time
It was right in front of me
It felt fine
But you never longed for me
We were young
Living on fake ecstasy
Off you went
Chasing someone you just met
Caught your eye
You didn't even question why
Now your gone
But you'll be back before too long
I saw you standing right by my side
But you weren't there
You saw the pain that was in my eyes
But you didn't care
We were once lovers you walked away
Now you've returned but you cannot stay
Now I see
You were never right for me
It will be
Better off without you leave
You can't stay
Just turn around and walk away
I saw you standing right by my side
But you weren't there
You saw the pain that was in my eyes
But you didn't care
We were once lovers you walked away
Now you 've returned but you cannot stay
You came back
Hoping that I'd cut you slack
Thought you'd try
One more tired empty lie
But we're done
So ride on off into the sun
You say that you love me but you just walked away
You said that forever could be us one day
You say that you love me but you just walked away
Whatever we had here ended that day
I saw you standing right by my side
But you weren't there
You saw the pain that was in my eyes
But you didn't care
We were once lovers you walked away
Now you've returned and I've had my say
