Someone Left Behind - Malcolm Holcombe

She took a seat by the window

And covered her face as the tears rolled down

I heard her whisper johnny, oh johnny

Why did you leave me alone

The old bus driver

Pulled a picture out of his trouser back pocket

Shook his head and said jenny, dear jenny

Sixteen years she’s up and gone

Well there’s one who does the hurtin'

Two who’ll feel the pain

One who takes the train, another takes the blame

But there’s better days ahead in time

For someone, somewhere left behind

There’s a young man on the corner

Checking his watch as the time rolls by

No one hears him prayin' God, oh my God

In my life what have i done
