LYRICS ::

You walked right out the back door
Thunder & rain fell in the distance
You slipped right out without goodbye
& I am left holding broken sand

I mourn you even though you’re still out there
Because the person I knew & loved is not there
Everyone said we would be friends forever
But now you’re just a stranger stopping by

It wouldn’t have made any difference
If I would have been there differently
You aren’t the same person I used to know
That person hopped on a plane & slipped away

You aren’t the same person I used to know
The one who told me about honesty
You aren’t the same person I used to know
The one I laughed with & told secrets to

& I will never know when or where
Everything changed in your eyes
All I know is when I look at you
You’re transparent, I can see right through

It wouldn’t have made any difference
If I would have been there differently
You aren’t the same person I used to know
That person hopped on a plane & slipped away

You’re not the one
I used to love
You’re not the one
I used to know
You’re not the one
Who used to laugh
You’re not the one
Always there
You’re not the one
You don’t care now
You’re not the one
You left me here
You’re not the one
I hope you find it
You’re not the one
I believed in

It wouldn’t have made any difference
If I would have been there for you differently
You aren’t the same person I used to know
That person hopped on a plane & slipped away

& I sit watching the clouds go by
Trying to process this change
The spot you inhabited is left empty
I must find out who I am without you now

It wouldn’t have made any difference
If I would have been there differently
You aren’t the same person I used to know
That person hopped on a plane & slipped away

It wouldn’t have made any difference
I couldn’t have loved you differently
You still aren’t the same person I used to know
But I still hope you come back again someday
