How Could You

All I can do is sit alone in my room baby
Thinking about ya
How could this be that you are not here with me
When I gave you the best of me
I feast each day (each day)
Without a smile
And life seems so unfair
I feel like I wanna (like I wanna) die
You didn't even give me a last
You didn't give me a last goodbye baby
I've waited weeks for your call
I've waited here by the phone
Broken the silence too long (it broke to long)
I knew that something was wrong (ooooohhhhhhhh)
Right then I knew it babe
How could you do it babe (how could you do it)
How could you tear my poor heat in two (why did you have to do it
oooohhhhh)
How could you do it babe
How could you do (how could you do) it to me (to me)
Do it do it how could you do it baby
And tear my poor heart in two
Ain't no more blue up in my sky
Only cloudy moments ha
And this is like rain you left behind
All of those memories in the corner of my mind
I started looking at a picture in a frame
As I start to cry 'cause I can't picture us apart
Oh my God can you help me
Can you help me with this pain
With this pain I've buried deep down inside.
I've waited weeks for your call (yes I did)
I've waited here by the phone (everyday)
Broken the silence too long (too long)
I knew that something was wrong (Yeah)
Right then I knew it babe (baby)
How could you do it babe
How could you tear my poor heart in two
(how could you do it how could you do it to me baby)
Girl tell me it's not true (all my life)
Do I have to spend the rest of my life without you baby
How can I get through
How can I get through this pain this pain no deal baby
I've waited weeks for your call (I've waited for your call)
I've waited here by the phone (By my phone)
Broken the silence too long
(I knew it, I knew it, I knew it, I knew it)
I knew that something was wrong
Right then I knew it babe
How could you do it babe (why you do this why you went away)
How could you tear my poor heart in two (yeah yeah)
Yeah baby oooohhhhh
I've waited weeks for your call
I've waited here by the phone
Break it down, break it down (broken the silence too long)
Break it down, break it down (I knew that something was wrong)
Break it down
