Benjamin

I know that you don’t think about me anymore

I wish that I could say the same

But my heart’s still longing for the man you used to be

And I’m wondering if I could’ve made you stay

Could’ve made you stay

And the sound of feet on cobblestone is spelling out your name

And I wish I didn’t care that you’re an ocean away

I know that you were running from the bruises in your past

But you cut out all the good things too

You could’ve let ‘em last

I don’t know what I did

All I know is that I tried

To make it work but maybe I put up too much of a fight

And I find myself humming all your songs on lonely nights

On lonely nights

The images are flipping like a photobook

In the quiet of my mind

How the feeling of your skin was electric

On those distant lakeside nights

Those lakeside nights

And I thought that it meant something

When I held you while you cried

You let me see your hurt and shame

And you dropped your shell of pride

In that moment you were beautiful those honest, broken eyes

But I’m wondering now if it was real or all just in my mind

I don’t know what I did

All I know is that I tried

To make it work but maybe I put up too much of a fight

And I find myself humming all your songs on lonely nights

On lonely nights

And you’ll never know how much it stung

When you walked out of my life

You told me that we had something

Then left me high and dry

You said you didn’t know just what to do

But you didn’t even try

I know you didn’t know just what to do

But you couldn’t even try

I don’t know what I did

All I know is that I tried

To make it work but maybe I put up too much of a fight

And I find myself humming all your songs on lonely nights

Yea I find myself humming all your songs on lonely nights

On lonely nights
