A permanent mistake
Woken from slumber
Your absence cold
I went to find you
My heart’s half fold
And in the beam I
Saw you still
And after touch I
Felt the chill
Chorus
I don’t know why you did what you did …
Such a permanent mistake
I can’t fix it.
It is.
It’s done.
You left me like this?
Without a word
A nightmare image
That broke my world
So helpless am I
Hopeless, confused
Fearful and empty
Anger infused
Chorus
I don’t know why you did what you did …
Such a permanent mistake
I can’t fix it.
It is.
It’s done.
And now I have questions
Answers won’t meet
The rest of our future
A stark, blank sheet
You took me with you
Although I stay
Hardest thing now is
To face each day
Chorus
I don’t know why you did what you did …
Such a permanent mistake
I can’t fix it.
I never could.
