Only One - Patty Smyth

It was a house it was a home it had a soul where we once lived

But like a ghost just that doesn’t know which way to go I’m all alone

Your memory haunts me like this

I know you decided you needed a change but there were other eyes watching

They were taking the blame

They want to know when you’re coming back again

Tell me what to say

Cause I’m not the only one who lays awake

Waiting for your call

I’m not the only one who listens for your footsteps in the hall

No, you left us all

It was bad it was good it was life it was true

Why did you give up the fight?

Cause you took more than one last look

When you walked out the door that night

And I’m not the only one who falls apart

Every time you don’t call

I’m not the only one trying to act so big when inside I feel so small

No, you left us all

And the dog stands by the door, but you’re not coming home no more

And the kids are in the den watching family guy again, and again, and again

And I’m not the only one who’s been replaced in the pictures on your wall

I’m not the only one You put her above forgot who you loved when she called

No, I’m not the only one who falls apart every time you don’t call

I’m not the only one who listens for your foot stepped in the Hall

You left us all

Tell em it’s not their fault
