Left Behind

© A. Zoli & M. Hart 2019 (ASCAP)

I am not your murder balladeer
Sent to glorify what you did here
Still I fear there’s nothing I can do
To untangle the idea of you
Untangle the idea of you

Left behind I cannot change your mind
It’s wasted time,
It’s wasted
Hide your heart you’re here to play your part
and I’ll play mine
and I’ll play mine
I’m doing fine
I’m doing

I am not your justice of the peace
we can’t litigate your choice to leave
Still I fear I cannot let it go
The questions and the undertow
The questions and the undertow

Left behind I cannot change your mind
It’s wasted time,
It’s wasted
Hide your heart you’re here to play your part
and I’ll play mine
and I’ll play mine
I’m doing fine
I’m doing fine

I am not more selfish than the truth
I do not feel ashamed when I think of you
Still I fear I don’t know how to be
To inspire what you saw in me
Like tragic songs in major keys
